Shes a small-town, hard-workin woman just trying to make a living
Working three jobs, feedin four little mouths in a run-down kitchen
When you never takin nothin and doin nothin but givin
Its hard to be a good wife and a good mom and a good Christian
She said, I dont drink
But sometimes I need a stiff drink
Sippin from a highball glass
Let the world fade away
She said, I dont smoke
But sometimes I need a long drag
Yeah, I know it might sound bad
But sometimes I need a smoke break
Hes a big-city, hard-workin man just tryna to climb the ladder
First generation to go to college instead of drivin a tractor
Never had nothin handed to him on a silver platter
Its hard to be a good man, good son, do somethin good that matters
He said, I dont drink
But sometimes I wanna pop that top
Take a swig and make the world stop
And watch it fade away
He said, I dont smoke
But sometimes I wanna light it up
Yeah, when things get tough
Sometimes I need a smoke break
Yeah
So heres to you and heres to when the day gets long
Go ahead, I understand if you wanna take a load off
I dont drink
But sometimes I need a stiff drink
Sippin from a highball glass
Let the world fade away
Yeah, and I dont smoke
But sometimes I need a long drag
Yeah, I know it might sound bad
But sometimes I need a, sometimes I need a-
When the day gets long
When the works all done
When the sun sets
When you need to forget
Grab that cup, mmm
Fill it up
Sip it slow
And let it all go
Ooh
