[Verse 1]
We set out on that rainy morning
So far willing to both resign
All damn day it just kept on pouring
Since then I ain’t seen you dry your eyes
[Verse 2]
I ain’t got none of that fancy learning
Make my living with my hands and tools
I might not always keep them home fires burning
But I do my best to be no rich man’s fool
[Verse 3]
Sit down next to me by this muddy river
Let’s caste our troubles to the darkest deep
All this sorrow ain’t necessary
We’re both here trying to find some relief
[Chorus]
I bought a pack of new Old Golds
I tore in to the cellophane
I lit one up to ease my mind
I guess I’m smoking again
I bought a bottle of old John Powers
Whoa how that cap did spin
Three swallows and I’m on time
I guess I’m drinking again
[Verse 4]
I don’t need nobody’s help with nothing
Said the loneliest man to live
And in the morning when I find you left
Be careful darling but go right on ahead
[Verse 5]
Away ‘cross town in a lonely motel room
Stays my baby with a last goodbye
And if I’d done all the things that I said I would
Maybe you’d still be sleeping by my side
[Chorus x2]
I bought a pack of new Old Golds
I tore in to the cellophane
I lit one up to ease my mind
I guess I’m smoking again
I bought a bottle of old John Powers
Whoa how that cap did spin
Three swallows and I’m on time
I guess I’m drinking again
I bought a pack of new Old Golds
I tore in to the cellophane
I lit one up to ease my mind
I guess I’m smoking again
I bought a bottle of old John Powers
Whoa how that cap did spin
Three swallows and I’m on time
And I’m drinking again
We set out on that rainy morning
So far willing to both resign
All damn day it just kept on pouring
Since then I ain’t seen you dry your eyes
[Verse 2]
I ain’t got none of that fancy learning
Make my living with my hands and tools
I might not always keep them home fires burning
But I do my best to be no rich man’s fool
[Verse 3]
Sit down next to me by this muddy river
Let’s caste our troubles to the darkest deep
All this sorrow ain’t necessary
