I ain't been drinkin', but if I was drinkin'
I think I'd be drinkin' bourbon
And right now you'd be a blur
And I wouldn't hear a word
'Cause I'd be good and drunk
That's for certain

I ain't been smokin', but if I was smokin'

"Get High"

She hates her job, loves her kids
Bored with her husband
Tired of the same old list of things to do
So when the to-dos have all been done
She sits down at the kitchen table
And rolls herself a fat one

Raven is the color of her long, curly hair
Red is the dress that she knows how to wear
Bluest eyes I've ever seen - maybe just a touch of green
Oh, she could steal most any woman's man
This'd be a real good time to hold my hand

She walked up and said, "Hello, it's been awhile"
Don't think I didn't notice the nervous in your smile

Twenty-eight, shouldn't look this old
But the last ten years sure took their toll
On the girl in the picture with the plastic crown
That sea queen dress wouldn't fit her now
Like it did
Before the kids

Yeah, she loves her husband 'cause she said she would

In some corner in some bar
Somewhere not too far
He's drinking scotch on the rocks
Watchin' the sweat on the glass roll off
In some corner, in some bar, somewhere

There's a jukebox playin' Jones
Keepin' him company bein' alone

"Just Like Him"

He was kinda like Superman
Show up, save the day, disappear and then
We wouldn't hear from him 'til Christmas
He was always a whole lotta fun
Til he get one drink too drunk
A Fight would start he'd be breaking hearts and dishes

We live in trailers and apartments too
From California to Kalamazoo
Grow up get married and when that one ends
We hate sleeping alone so we get married again

Don't wanna be buried in debt or in sin
So we pray to Jesus and we play the lotto
Cause there ain't but two ways

Ain't we all the stars
Ain't we all the stars
Playing the leading part
In our own soap opera?

Sherry shampooed 'til she got her own chair
Now she's playing shrink to every head of hair
A mani or a pedi or color or a cut

"Stripes"

Woah, woah, woah, woah

[VERSE 1:]
You were lyin' there with nothing on
But a goofy little grin and a platinum blonde
I can't believe you'd do that on our bed

She got up and put her makeup on
Made a pot of coffee extra strong
At the kitchen table sucking on a cigarette

Read the paper in a cloud of smoke
While the dirty dinner dishes soaked
Woke up the kids and coaxed them out of bed

She's got three kids, no husband
She's two weeks late on last month's rent
She's waitin' on the child support
He keeps swearin' that it's coming
But if she knows him, she knows where it went
And that pile o' bills ain't gonna pay themselves

It's been a forty-hour week and it's only Tuesday
