V1:
There’s a sober man’s fable,
It says, “get yourself out while you're able”
Well I could think that it’s true but have nothing to prove so I’ll drink myself under the table
And I reached for the sky once they said, “Kid, that’s only for sly ones”
Well I got words to say but no reason to play, so I’ll just resign to be silent
Chorus:
Don’t you know tonight I got nobody by my side,
I need a buck and some luck and I guess I’ll take a car ride
V2:
I was walking the beach and who should I meet but a man stepped in from the past
He said, “Everything good ain’t as good as it could and nothing that good can last”
So we sat there, him and me,
And our Moonlight Company,
We wished on the stars and played our guitars,
and sent songs by bottle to sea
V3:
Now the moonlight charades, late night escapades still made no way for escape,
A moth came near and whispered in my ear, “Boy, take yourself down to the cape”
I jumped in for a swim, mother earth took me in and I found my way to the bottom,
Where a mermaid and me took a tour of the sea and checked into a submarine brothel

V1:
I am a poor boy,
I don't make a living,
Gonna keep on diggin',
Till the sun goes down
I love my ladies,
I keep a-givin',
Till I'm no longer living,
and I'm dead in the ground
Chorus:
Won't you take me home my darlin'?
I'm too drunk to walk the floor,
If you'd just lend me your shoulder,
We could both walk out the door
V2:
It's hard but I'm stickin',
To this old guitar pickin',
The singing and the grinning,
That you get out of life
Driving the fast cars,
Playing the smokey bars,
Chasing the shooting stars,
Is where I'll be tonight
