lyrics

ive been drinking
ive been drinking
ive been drinking ginger ale and saltines
for too long

and you know that
and you know that
and you know that I cant
let go

when i was young
there were two envelopes
on my old kitchen table
filled with my dads hopes
that we wouldnt get drunk
so he filled them with money
the other dads laughed
cuz they thought it was funny

now the call me sub free

whoooa
whoaoao

traveled the world and i hadn't even met her yet
id seen those eyes but theres just somethings theyll never get
new story told every time i greet her
she never had any roots
just a pretty pair of rain boots
galoshing her way up further

what am i supposed to do

whoa
whoahaha

ive been drinking
ive been drinking
ive been drinking
ginger ale and saltines for too long
and you know that and you know that I
cant let go

so i went to college
and we met each other
and we became friends
and i called You my Brother

you drink a little
and you drink alot
and you dont drink at all
and thats all weve got

i drink a little and I drink alot
and i dont drink at all
and thats all weve got

ive been drinking
ive been drinking
ive been drinking
ginger ale and saltines for too long
and you know that and you know that I
cant let
go

go

go

goooooo

whooooa

whoaoao
