You got drunk last night, you swear you saw the devil But don't you know firewater seeks its own level Life is a cyclone, d**h is but a breeze Will you die on your feet or will you live on your knees Guitar strummin' wine overflowin' They say you have it comin' if you never got it goin' You blame it on your baby that your heart was broke in half Well I can see you just been cryin' so you don't have to laugh There ain't nothing sacred you can beg or steal or borrow When you're swimmin' in self pity you'll be drownin' in your sorrow You got drunk last night you swear you saw the devil But don't you know firewater seeks its own level Your clothes fit fine and your hair looks great You got time you can waste but no time to wait You're drownin' me in the waves your brain sent It ain't love anymore it's just entertainment If the devil made you do it well go for it honey Just be sure you give him a run for his money You can k** the bottle there ain't no murder mystery There's a little bit left but all the rest is natural history You got drunk last night you swear you saw the devil Don't you know firewater seeks its own level Perched on your back was a loud mouth vulture Y'all were talkin' back and forth about the counter-counter culture Smoke was hangin' heavy everybody had to breathe it Your hands were on the table but your thoughts were underneath it Everybody got stoned and when the night was over The wildest one there was cold stone sober But you and all the rest well your eyes gottin' muddy 'Cause the bartender knows he's gotta to serve somebody You got drunk last night you swear you saw the devil But don't you know firewater seeks its own level You got drunk last night you swear you saw the devil But don't you know firewater seeks its own level
