The hard times came and got me again
I'm to the store for a patty of Hen
I'm picking up where I left off
Where I left off
Picking up where I left off
Where I left off
A cup of ice and a bottle of Hen
Plus a pack of Newport's to help me-
Then I'm picking up where I left off
Where I left off
Picking up where I left off
Where I left off
Crack open the bottle, watch the spark slide
As it meets the ice, the perfect pair
No better choice for me to get right
Light up my cigarette and take a breath
And prepare myself for the next step
Just as quick as that, another phone call
Just as quick as that, another lost dog
Blowing smoke in the fog, just trying to get it to stop
Only helping the next wheel that's bound to fall off
Since '05, we lost a lot
And since '05 it ain't stopped
So since '05 it's long gone
Where's the healing that we all saw?
'Cause they say time heals everything
Time just makes a cold heart numb things
It doesn't bring happiness, it doesn't bring joy
It brings court cases and caskets and fatherless boys
It doesn't bring happiness, it doesn't bring joy
It brings court cases and caskets, what do we live for?
The hard times came and got me again
I'm to the store for a patty of Hen
I'm picking up where I left off
Where I left off
Picking up where I left off
Where I left off
A cup of ice and a bottle of Hen
Plus a pack of Newport's to help me-
Then I'm picking up where I left off
Where I left off
Picking up where I left off
Where I left off
I done tried a thousand times not to cry at these wakes
I done tried a thousand times, but that's all that it takes
I can't take no more seeing your face in a casket
Vivid memories come visit me, and I start asking
God to embrace these sleeping faces with graces
I know we're living dangerous, constantly turning pages
But I can't see no more demons, show me angels
And I can't do no more funerals, I'm tangled
In webs, we wove in the days of old
Only 25 with so many that never got to know
How the kids growing up fast
Or how their niece looks now three years passed
Or how your boy on the road to riche-
Which it sounds good, but I'm so lonely
'Cause my homies ain't there like they should be
Instead, they cemetery-bound, I said it a thousand times
But God, please don't take no more souls now
The hard times came and got me again
I'm to the store for a patty of Hen
I'm picking up where I left off
Where I left off
Picking up where I left off
Where I left off
A cup of ice and a bottle of Hen
Plus a pack of Newport's to help me-
Then I'm picking up where I left off
Where I left off
Picking up where I left off
Where I left off
I'm on my last shot of Hen, on my last fucking nerve
At the end with the world, had enough with these girls
They all want me, want nothing from me
When I don't want me, so why do they want me?
Broken down, escalated to drinking problems to a livin' problem
All these situations supposed to make me stronger
But it's numbing from the inside out
Gotta sedate with NyQuil just to shut my eyes
This cemetery keep calling me
I hear the whispers, feel the wicked touch on my skin
Grown so friendly, I can't depend on tomorrow
If I was a gambling man, I'd put my money on sorrow
It's all that I've seen, so it's all that I know-
I've seen temporary happiness, but never they grow
They say, "cheer up, smile for me now
I will when you liven up my folks underground
The hard times came and got me again
I'm to the store for a patty of Hen
I'm picking up where I left off
Where I left off
Picking up where I left off
Where I left off
A cup of ice and a bottle of Hen
Plus a pack of Newport's to help me-
Then I'm picking up where I left off
Where I left off
Picking up where I left off
Where I left off
