[Lyric] WHISKEY AND A CIGARETTE (LARS NELSON BAND)

WHISKEY AND A CIGARETTE
Ride my Triumph away from a job I don’t love
The road away meets the sky above
Seventy-two hours till I’m back again
I got a check in my pocket
That I’m looking to spend
Tell a few jokes with the local crew
All those tales get taller before the night is through
Before I know I left the week behind
So play some Johnny Cash just one more time
Drinking away my day’s a good start
To another Friday night in my local bar
Don’t know about the future
Ain’t got no regrets
So pass me that whiskey and a cigarette
The joint is jumpin’ just as I walk in
They got a cold beer waiting for me
And my sideways grin
The gamblers and regulars all know my name
I buy a round for the fellas and they do the same
Watch the city girls dancing in their new Levi’s
Not much changes but I’m always surprised
Before I know I left the week behind
So play some Steve Earle just one more time
Drinking away my day’s a good start
To another Friday night in my local bar
Don’t know about the future
Ain’t got no regrets
So pass me that whiskey and a cigarette
Star-spangled glory
Saints be praised
Take a shot or two
Here’s to better days
Out in the woods
Howling at the moon
Next weekend couldn’t come too soon
Couldn’t come too soon
Drinking away my day’s a good start
To another Friday night in my local bar
Don’t know about the future
Ain’t got no regrets
So pass me that whiskey and a cigarette
Drinking away my day’s a good start
To another Friday night in my local bar
Don’t know about the future
Ain’t got no regrets
So pass me that whiskey and a cigarette
