Gettin' drunk and fallin' down
Has taken its toll on me
I like livin' life full throttle
But now it seems like I'm runnin' outta steam
I'll never give up on havin' fun
And raisin' hell in Tennesse
I like a good time livin' on the run
With my good friend misery

'Cuase gettin' drunk
And fallin' down
I'd say I'm known
All over town
It's the kind of livin'
That's gonna put me in the ground
Gettin' drunk
And fallin' down

Well I did my best to stay
On the good side of the tracks
But my friend Billy Joe's
Done got me drinkin' back outta the paper sack
And now I'm here drinkin' 
All alone at the bar
Buck Owens a-singin'
About his honky-tonk scar

'Cuase gettin' drunk
And fallin' down
I'd say I'm known
All over town
It's the kind of livin'
That's gonna put me in the ground
Gettin' drunk
And fallin' down
Gettin' drunk
And fallin' down
