Good 'Ole Hurtin' Song - The Marshall Tucker Band

This 'ole beer gut I got don’t get no smaller

If I thought it’d do any good I’d go ahead and call her

I’ve been drinkin' up my pain since she’s been gone, yeah

For every fool there’s a good boss too

And the same 'ole sad, sad song

Yeah, the beer would go a lot farther with a good 'ole hurtin' song

I drink a few with a song or two and it never takes me long

And as long as I got the money I’ll stay where I belong

Yeah, the beer would go a lot farther with a good 'ole hurtin' song

My friends keep tellin' me, boy, you oughta quit it

But they ain’t the ones that have to drink to forget it

And forgettin' don’t come easy when you’re sober and all alone

So I pop my tops and play the jukebox all the pain is gone

Yeah, the beer would go a lot farther with a good 'ole hurtin' song

I drink a few with a song or two and it never takes me long

And as long as I got the money I’ll stay where I belong

Yeah, the beer would go a lot farther with a good 'ole hurtin' song

Yeah, the beer would go a lot farther with a good 'ole hurtin' song
