"Smoke Break" lyrics
"Smoke Break"
She's a small-town, hard-workin' woman
Just tryna make a livin'
Workin' three jobs, feeding four little mouths
In a run-down kitchen
When you're never takin' nothin' and doin' nothin' but givin'
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
Sippin' from a highball 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-workin' man just tryna climb the ladder
First generation to go to college instead of drivin' a tractor
Never had nothin' handed to him on a silver platter
It's hard to be a good man, good son
Do somethin' 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 highball 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, mmm
Fill it up
Sip it slow
And let it all go
Ooh

Dixie Chicks - "Landslide" I took my love and I took it down
I climbed a mountain and I turned around
And I saw my reflection in the snow-covered hills
Well, the landslide brought me down
Oh, mirror in the sky, what is love?...
Luke Bryan - "Games" You know the one where you call
But you act like you never called me
When you see me at a bar
But you act like you never saw me
When you're dancing with him, and you're looking at me
Or I'm holding...
Little Big Town - "Pain Killer" Don't need no whiskey
When I've had a bad day
No prescription honey
When my skies are grey
No popping the pills
No smoking the pills
That make me feel okay
But you go down easy baby
I could drink...
Chris Young - "I'm Comin' Over" We say "goodbye, see you around"
We turn our backs then turn back around
We break up, we make up, and we make love
We can't seem to let go, girl
So I'm comin' over, runnin' every red light
To hell...
Justin Moore - "You Look Like I Need A Drink" I could tell by the way you sounded when you called
That I wasn't going to like what you had to say
I could read between the lines there was something different this time
You're coming over tonight...
