Drink Instead

Wake up ?for the sun rises
Got to pay my dues
Slip on my stockings and my high heeled shoes
Put on my happy face
Pretend I like this place
But I can?t wait to leave out the door
And drink away what I?ve been working for

Scratch and claw my way through the day
The money I make
Can?t cover the bills I need to pay
Can?t get a step ahead
Should of kept my tired body in bed
But I think, I?ll just drink instead

I think I?ll drink, I think I?ll drink instead
No where to rest my weary head
Should have kept this tired body in bed
But I think, I?ll just drink Instead

I should do something with my life
I should buy a house,
Buy a car, become a wife
But I think, I?d rather drink instead

Pass me my bandy , pass me my gin
Hey bartender give me one more round again
So many problems I should think of in my head
But I think, I?ll just drink instead
