lyrics

"Flew The Coop"

Well I got fired from my job yesterday
I argued with my boss about the pay
Said I need to get me a living wage
And he said "Get the hell out of my face"

[Chorus]
So smoke 'em if you got 'em
Been on down to the bottom
Hell I'm getting high again
There ain't no one around in this old town
Trying to help out an old friend
Well this world keeps a spinning
And I ain't a-winning
Trying to get back on my feet again
So light me up and smoke me down
Back to the filter again

Well I'm as broke as can be
I went and spent all my money
I ain't got no savings and I am just a-waiting
For that Unemployment check to come by me

[Chorus]
So smoke 'em if you got 'em
Been on down to the bottom
Hell I'm getting high again
There ain't no one around in this old town
Trying to help out an old friend
Well this world keeps a spinning
And I ain't a-winning
Trying to get back on my feet again
So light me up and smoke me down
Back to the filter again

Well I tried to quit cigarettes
I ain't got no money nor regrets
If the bird Flew The Coop then I'd steal his nest
There ain't no guilt up on my chest

[Chorus]
So smoke 'em if you got 'em
Been on down to the bottom
Hell I'm getting high again
There ain't no one around in this old town
Trying to help out an old friend
Well this world keeps a spinning
And I ain't a-winning
Trying to get back on my feet again
So light me up and smoke me down
Back to the filter again
So light me up and smoke me down
Back to the filter again
