Yeah, this time it's it

I'm calling it quits

I'm not turning her on anymore

She packed up the same ol' stuff

And slammed the same ol' door

And I said, "Goodbye"

She said , "To hell with you"

She'll be shocked when I change the locks

And throw pictures in a box

Light 'em up in the backyard

Have myself a bonfire

And watch that son of a bitch burn away

To the ground

Just like everything

That's just what you do

When you're at the bottom

It sure could drain a man

About as empty as these beer cans

If you ask me why I took her back

The last half dozen times

I'd tell you that I don't know

But I must've been outta my mind

And the end is here

It's a little fuzzy

But I see it clear

That's just what you do

When you're at the bottom

It sure could drain a man

About as empty as these beer cans

Yeah, I'm gonna put in work

I'll tough it out

And I'll be alright and live it up

The power's in my hands

And the answer's in these beer cans, yeah

Yeah, that's just what you do

When you're at the bottom

It sure could drain a man

About as empty as these beer cans

As empty as these beer cans

Oh, I'm a little drunk

But things are looking up

Yeah, with all these empty beer cans

Aw, better clean 'em up

Oh, that's all I know

Yeah, it's just what you do

When you're at the bottom

It sure could drain a man

About as empty as these beer cans
