Out here I sit in silence,
Sober's not been here, since about six whole days ago.
Why I sit inside of this smoke filled room, tryin' to forget about my hopeless day.
When all I need is to get outta my house and hang out with the Company.
We'll laugh in vein at the days,
'cause trees don't grow without rain.
So,
Better days, better days are here,
So drink to health and your friends.
Better days, better days are near,
tears and laughs 'till the end.
So pass the Jack and smokes man, let's head out to the bar, with no purpose and no soul.
I won't sit alone in my smoke filled room, trying to leave behind another day.
'Cause I know all I need is to get outta my house and have a night like Jimmy Dean.
We'll laugh in vein at the days.
'Cause trees don't grow without rain.
So,
Better days, better days are here.
So drink to health and your friends.
Better days, better days are near,
Tears and laughs 'till the end
I don't know why we avoid the truth,
when it's all said and done, we lose.
So,
Better days, better days are here,
So drink to health and your friends.
Better days, better days are near,
Tears and laughs 'till the end
Come with me, come with me.
