Play me something about drinkin', one about cheatin'
A few about losin', lyin' and leavin'

Play me something about drinkin', one about cheatin'

Don't play me no love songs

A few about losin', lyin' and leavin'
And play it all night long but don't play me no love songs

So play me something about drinkin', one about cheatin'
He said, "A guy like me likes the simple things
