So you raise another glass
looking for a different space,
I was leaning on the grass
dreaming of a sunnier day,
oh, it never came,
how could it have baby?
Where the present meets the past
it’s hard to be more than we’ve seen.
Your daddy was a drinker
he just keep drinking
til the jokes he was thinking
sounded true.
Your mama was a thinker,
she just wasn’t thinking
on the day that se looked at him
and said I do,
‘cause I will always
I will always
I will always
try to get my life together.
I guess we always,
guess we always knew
that it would be stormy weather.
This is how we want you to get high,
the way we showed you,
the way we told you was decent.
This is how we want you to get high,
this is how we want you to get by.
My daddy was a toker
he just kept smoking
til the jokes he could tell
got very blue.
My mama was a joker,
if she was a hippy
then I guess she was tripping
on a high love you.
‘Cause I will always
I will always
I will always
try to get my life together.
I guess we always,
guess we always knew
that it would be stormy weather.
This is how we want you to get high,
the way we showed you,
the way we told you was decent.
This is how we want you to get high,
this is how we want you to get by
on your sorry lives.
Take another, take another.
I never picked a fight in my life
or raised a hand to my wife
or saw my children as things to bully.
I never dropped a pill in a drink
I know how low you can sink,
my heart, my heart is better than that.

Looking for a different space,
dreaming of a sunnier day
oh, it never came,
how could it have baby?
Where the present meets the past
it’s hard to be more than we’ve seen,
it’s hard to be more than we’ve seen.
