beer and bones

i ain't nothin' but beer and bones

honey since i lost you

i ain't ate a bite

since the night

that you said we're through

i walked to that jukebox to play

a few sad country songs

i heard someone say

hey that old boy

ain't nothin' but beer and bones

i got to work this morning

early this afternoon

yeah my boss man nudged me

said son i need to talk to you

you used to make me money

but lately i been taking a loss

well he smelled my breath

gave me what was left

of the day off

i ain't nothin' but beer and bones

honey since i lost you

i ain't ate a bite

since the night

that you said we're through

i walked to that jukebox to play

a few sad country songs

i heard someone say

hey that old boy

ain't nothin' but beer and bones

well i wish i could go home

and rest my weary head

but i know i'll just stay here

and have another beer instead

that little waitress asked me

honey could you use some help

i said i thank you miss

i'll have to get through this

by my dang self

i ain't nothin' but beer and bones

honey since i lost you

i ain't ate a bite

since the night

that you said we're through

i walked to that jukebox to play

a few sad country songs

i heard someone say

hey that old boy

ain't nothin' but beer and bones

i heard someone say

hey that old boy

ain't nothin' but beer and bones
