Jason Boland & the Stragglers - Pearl Snaps Lyrics

Cheap bourbon whiskey and pearl-snap shirts
Are two things that stay the same
So when the world starts spinnin' and your head hurts
There's a cheap bourbon whiskey and pearl-snap shirt

Yeah the Shade Tree mechanic is a dinosaur
You can't cuss, you can't smoke or spit on the floor
And don't you hit on a woman 'cause she might sue
You can't buy beer in the state past two

But that cheap bourbon whiskey and pearl-snap shirts
Are two things that stay the same
So when the world starts spinnin' and your head hurts
There's a cheap bourbon whiskey and pearl-snap shirt

Well now Buddha is legal but Jesus ain't
The saints are all sinners and the sinners are saints
And it's not how you play, it's the final score
They don't show M*A*S*H* on the tube anymore

Cheap bourbon whiskey and pearl-snap shirts
Are two things that stay the same
So when the world starts spinnin' and your head hurts
There's a cheap bourbon whiskey and pearl-snap shirt

Well now your lovers usually leave at the drop of a ring
And Daddy doesn't smile when a mockingbird sings
The kids are in school, but they're all packin' a gun
The losers live forever and the good die young

Cheap bourbon whiskey and pearl-snap shirts
Are two things that stay the same
So when the world starts spinnin' and your head hurts
There's a cheap bourbon whiskey and pearl-snap shirt

Yeah the stars are all fallin' out of the sky
The doors are all locked and the bottle is dry
So pass me the pipe, and sing me a song
The pipe is cashed out-well, just load up a bong

'Cause that cheap bourbon whiskey and pearl-snap shirts
Are two things that stay the same
So when the world starts spinnin' and your head hurts
There's a cheap bourbon whiskey and pearl-snap shirt

Cheap bourbon whiskey and pearl-snap shirts
