Drunks and Children Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Don't mind when it happens
No problem when I am sayin' it
But when I lose my mind, kick my behind
Because I hate when my mind keeps replayin' it
I'm not braggin' and I'm not proud
I hang around a drunken crowd
We are happy, that I can say
And until we're not, I kid you not
We're gonna stay that way

[Chorus]
We're down, down, down
One more day of sayin' we won't be no more
Down, down, down
One more good day of sayin' we won't be no more

[Verse 2]
Drinkin' the other day
I said I loved you, you turned away
Maybe the drinkin', it made me cry
But I'm a happy, very happy, very happy guy
Drunks and children, they tell the truth
That's just what I am, I'm drunken youth
And when I'm drinkin', I don't know why
But I'm a happy, very happy, very happy guy

[Bridge]
Sometimes when I'm playin'
I never watch what I'm sayin'
Sometimes I lose my head
I lose my head and things get said I never should have said
Sometimes I get housed
I get housed, I get soused and shoot off my mouth
And sometimes I can't get out
And I don't know what I'm talkin' about

[Outro]
Y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-ou know, I've made mistakes
I've had my ups and downs, my ins and outs
My share of bad breaks
But when it's all been said and done
I raise my beer and I swear, "God, it's been fun!"
Good God, oh my God, good God, good God
Good God, good God, God, it's been fun!
Goddamn!
Huh!
