This is a character sketch of a man who’s been a drunk for so long, he’s forgotten why he started. What few friends he has left have told him they can see he’s losing touch with reality and about to go under for good.
[Verse 1]
You’re good for nothing, it’s what they always say
I can't say no different, look at me today
Always in and out of trouble, an enemy of the state
Why I can’t I get my act together, dollar short, a day late
[Chorus]
And they say why you don’t quit drinkin’
You’re always acting like a clown
We all see your ships been sinkin’
Just slowly goin’ down
You've been runnin’ for so long
You ain’t got no time to lose
You better right in all your wrongs
Last call for the blues
[Verse 2]
Yeah the first step, it's admitting, then it’s one day at a time
Don’t you dare deny it, you're way past your prime
You better start to look ahead, what’s done is dead and gone
There ain’t no wisdom in that whiskey, there’s only sadness in your song
[Chorus]
And they say why you don’t quit drinkin’
You’re always acting like a clown
We all see your ships been sinkin’
Just slowly goin’ down
You've been runnin’ for so long
You ain’t got no time to lose
You better right in all your wrongs
Last call for the blues
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Chorus]
And they say why you don’t quit drinkin’
You’re always acting like a clown
We all see your ships been sinkin’
Just slowly goin’ down
You've been runnin’ for so long
You ain’t got no time to lose
You better right in all your wrongs
Last call for the blues
You better right in all your wrongs
Last call for the blues
