Bandera Style (Whiskey, Smoke, and Beer)
She said "Go on, get out. Go on, get out of here.
I'm tired of you coming home smelling like whiskey, smoke and beer"
Man, she got mad. She made me drop the drink I had
And I don't see why life has got to be so hard and sad, so sad.She'd made up her mind some time ago. By the door
was my sleeping bag and my fishing pole. I guess it's
Another night by the riverside, Bandera style, with
some Schaefer Light
Well, I ain't got much but I guess I still got my dog
When I get drunk he doesn't seem to care at all. He's
sitting there in the middle of the pickup seat, so
patiently. That's where she used to be.She said "Go on, get out. Go on, get out of here.
I'm tired of you coming home smelling like whiskey, smoke and beer"
Man, she got mad. She made me drop the drink I had
And I don't see why life has got to be so hard and sad, so sad.I guess it's another night by the riverside, Bandera style
With some Schaefer LightOn my way to the river, I stopped by Arkey Blues'
I ran into Lee and he's already heard the news
So we rolled 'em up and I poured some shots
"Here's some sympathy" Yeah, here's to me and my mysery
She said "Go on, get out. Go on, get out of here.
I'm tired of you coming home smelling like whiskey, smoke and beer"
Man, she got mad. She made me drop the drink I had
And I don't see why life has got to be so hard and sad, so sad.Words and Lyrics by Noel and Hollin McKay
