What's It Take to Get a Drink in Here Songtext
von Jerry Kilgore

What′s it take to get a drink in here?
I'm seeing everything a little too clear
Got her memory coming on
Pour me something strong, make it disappear
Here′s a twenty pushed up on the bar
Might even leave a little in that jar
That's if you think that you could make it this year
What's it take to get a drink in here?
I′ve been watchin′ my watch
The sweep second hand keeps a goin' around
Again and again and soberin′ up
Means missin' her love
You′re lookin' at a thirsty man
What′s it take to get a drink in here?
I'm seeing everything a little too clear
Got her memory coming on
Pour me something strong, make it disappear Here's a twenty pushed up on the bar
Might even leave a little in that jar
That′s if you think that you could make it this year
What′s it take to get a drink in here?
I ain't here to talk, I ain′t here to cry
I got all kinds of time but I ain't got all night
The enemy of thinkin′ is serious drinkin'
And I can′t afford to lose the fight
What's it take to get a drink in here?
I'm seeing everything a little too clear
Got her memory coming on
Pour me something strong, make it disappear
Here′s a twenty pushed up on the bar
Might even leave a little in that jar
That′s if you think that you could make it this year
What's it take to get a drink in here?
