Song lyrics

She's a small-town, hard-working woman just trying to make a living,
Working three jobs, feeding four little mouths in a run-down kitchen;
When you never taking nothing and doing nothing but giving,
It's hard to be a good wife, and a good mom, and a good Christian.

She said, "I don't drink
But sometimes I need a stiff drink,
Sipping from a high full glass,
Let the world fade away."
She said, "I don't smoke
But sometimes I need a long drag,
Yeah, I know it might sound bad,
But sometimes I need a smoke break.”

He's a big-city, hard-working man just trying to climb the ladder,
First generation to go to college instead of driving a tractor,
Never had nothing handed to him on a silver platter,
It's hard to be a good man, good son, do something good that matters.

He said, "I don't drink
But sometimes I wanna pop that top,
Take a swig and make the world stop,
And watch it fade away."
He said, "I don't smoke
But sometimes I wanna light it up,
Yeah, when things get tough,
Sometimes I need a smoke break, yeah!"

So here's to you and here's to when the day gets long,
Go ahead, I understand if you wanna take a load off.

I don't drink
But sometimes I need a stiff drink,
Sipping from a high full glass,
Let the world fade away.
Yeah, and I don't smoke
But sometimes I need a long drag,
Yeah, I know it might sound bad,
But sometimes I need a, sometimes I need a...

When the day gets long,
When the work's all done,
When the sun sets,
When you need to forget,
Grab that cup,
Fill it up,
Sip it slow,
And let it all go.
