Shot of Jack Daniels Lyrics

When I woke up in the morning I was already late for work

I only got one sip of coffee and the rest poured down my shirt

Man I was strugglin', but I was still hustlin' to go make that pay

And I thought I had it figured, I'd erased most of my doubt

Until I walked up to my car to find the air was all let out

Of my front tire, like life conspired, to ruin this day

Well I knew where this was headed

And the only thing that I could think to say, was hey

I need a shot of Jack Daniels and a Marlboro smoke

I need a big screen TV and a damn fine joke

A Red-headed, long-legged girl on my knee

Who tells me that she wants to do whatever I please

You know I don't need no doctor with no fine antidote

I need a shot of Jack Daniels and a Marlboro Smoke

Well I tried to shake it off me, tried to turn this mess around

But then my phone it got to buzzin' I could tell just by the sound

It was my baby, said I was lazy, and she'd packed up her things

Well I tried the voice of reason and I begged her not to go

But before I even finished I could hear that dial tone

That meant she'd hung up, man don't that sum up what this day will bring

Ain't no use in tryin' to fight it

It was over 'fore I stepped into the ring, so I'll just sing

I need a shot of Jack Daniels and a Marlboro smoke

I need a big screen TV and a damn fine joke

A Red-headed, long-legged girl on my knee

Who tells me that she wants to do whatever I please

You know I don't need no doctor with no fine antidote

I need a shot of Jack Daniels and a Marlboro Smoke

Well as soon as I got up I should've climbed back into bed

I should've known right from the start that I was in over my head

Ain't gonna start a cussin' or a pullin' out my hair

I'm gonna ride it out till I can get me somewhere

To get a shot of Jack Daniels and a Marlboro smoke

With a big screen TV and a damn fine joke

A Red-headed, long-legged girl on my knee

Who tells me that she wants to do whatever I please

You know I don't need no doctor with no fine antidote

I need a shot of Jack Daniels and a Marlboro Smoke

I need a shot of Jack Daniels and a Marlboro Smoke

Give me a shot of Jack Daniels and a Marlboro Smoke
