There's a pool hall juke box, sawdust floors
Three plays for a quarter, and we still want more
Yeah there's a reason for fast cars
And that double yellow line
Heartbreak songs and good cheap two dollar wine
Chorus:
'Cuz of people like us
There's honky tonk music, long neck bottles
Rusty old pickup trucks
Oh at last call the lights go up
And it's all because of people like us
I got a second hand boat, the last numbers in jail
There's second hand smoke, everywhere I exhale
There's greasy little truck stops, all night dives
No-tell Motel's and everybody knows why
Chorus
'Cuz of people like us
There's honky tonk music, long neck bottles
Rusty old pickup trucks
Oh at last call the lights go up
'Cuz of people...people like us
There's honky tonk music, long neck bottles
Rusty old pickup trucks
And at last call the lights go up
And it's all because of people like us
Late night people like us
Hard lovin people like us
Hah hah, just fun lovin people like us
Hillbilly people like us!
She was a woman on a mission
Here to drown him and forget him
So I set her up again to wash him down
She had just about succeeded when that
Low-down no-good cheatin' good for nothin'
Came struttin' through the crowd
Oh, he was layin' it on so thick
He never missed a lick
Professin' his never ending love
Oh, but I never will forget
When she stood up and said
"So I guess you think we're just gonna kiss and make up, don't ya?"
That's when she said:
Chorus:
Why don't you kiss
Kiss this
And I don't mean on my rosy red lips
'Cause me and you
We're through
And there's only one thing left for you to do
You just come on over here one last time
Pucker up and close your eyes
And kiss this goodbye
Well, the next thing I recall
She had him backed against the wall
Chewin' him like a bulldog on a bone
She was puttin' him in his place
And I mean right up in his face
Draggin' him down a list of done-me-wrongs
Well, it was just about now that a crowd gathered 'round
They'd come to watch him pay for his every sin
She called him everything under the sun
And when we thought that she was done
She reared back, and she let him have it again, man
Chorus (2 x's)
