Brooks Nielsen - Drinking Song For Kids lyrics

[Verse 1] Too many songs, none about drinking Too many songs of stories un-lived I get along with my imperfections I got a song just for the kids [Verse 2] Holding it in, don't let them find out You want to keep all your life separate I don't plan on having a stage name You be the judge if I seem pathetic [Chorus] Here I am, cold as a beer can That I struggle with until I wake Here I am warming up in time In the hands of a God without a name [Verse 3] I drink heavy if you measure in blood Can't say no with a friend with a smirk My ego's too sore so don't let me shut up My mind loves to watch my heart overwork [Chorus] Here I am, cold as a beer can That I struggle with until I wake Here I am warming up in time In the hands of a God without a name [Bridge] Let my soul grow strong enough to be written in my eyes Let them drown in the waves of the salty tears I cried [Verse 4] If whiskey don't drown me and I make it to the surface And when I come up and if the smoke ain't too thick I'll turn around and swim back to the bottom I don't want to waste my wit [Chorus] Here I am, cold as a beer can That I struggle with until I wake Here I am warming up in time In the hands of a God without a name [Bridge] Let my soul grow strong enough to be written in my eyes Let them drown in the waves of the salty tears I cried [Verse 1] Too many songs, none about drinking Too many songs of stories un-lived I get along with my imperfections I got a song just for the kids [Bridge] Let my soul grow strong enough to be written in my eyes Let them drown in the waves of the salty tears I cried
