Billy Strings - Hellbender lyrics

In the cold early mornin', in the hills of Kentucky I awoke to the sound of the rain And the girl from last evenin', laid silently sleepin' No I could not remember her name My head was so cloudy, and the sweat poured around me Like the faucet that she left on high With a chip on my shoulder, I'm another day older And I swear I could break down and cry I never once made a dollar, which I didn't gamble Or scramble to burn at both ends I've raged all night long, in the hour beforе dawn On spirits and bitters, and Glen Whats left of my day might bе crimson or grey But never again black and white With a chip on my shoulder, I'm another day older And I swear I could break down and cry I'm a fool with my money, and I'm a fool with my drinkin' I'm sinkin' to the bottom of the well Addin' fuel to the fire, like my wildest desire Is to spend the next lifetime in Hell I could cruise down to Hades, in a snow-white Mercedes And a devilish look in my eye With a chip on my shoulder, I'm another day older And I swear I could break down and cry There's a hard place on one side, and a rock on the other No corners to cut in this maze Only one way to do it, just to grin and get through it Been drinkin' up the courage for days I'll drink every cup, and keep stackin' them up Till the Sun stumbles out of the sky With a chip on my shoulder, I'm another day older And I swear I could break down and cry I'll keep on this way, till my dyin' day It's a blessing I've tried to disguise With a chip on my shoulder, I'm another day older And I swear I could break down and cry [Two verses only performed live once] There's a worm in the bottle, and I'm racin' full throttle He'll only go down when it's dry With a chip on my shoulder, I'm another day older And I swear I could break down and cry And the weeks like this, I drink like a fish And occasionally eat like a bird And I'm not well done(?), just a shootin' my second And I'm already shootin' the third
