lyrics

High hopes keep pushing me along
While alcohol and women keep inspiring my songs
Luckily for me there's always whiskey and one night stands
And others who can relate to my situations

Like at that Wealthy St dive bar
Where the band and I used to burn it down for pitchers of PBR
It sure wasn't the big time but we were making noise
And them folks they could relate to them god damned Carboys

Things are different now than they were then
Still singing songs of lost love and trying to make amends
Nothing lasts forever, people will always change
And I'm thankful for those who can relate
