Shut Us Down Songtext
von Lance Roark

We′ve been out on the town
We've been drinking every morning ′til the sun comes down
And we've been up all night long
Wondering how the hell we'd get back home
Her daddy never liked me hanging around
Said I was the worst one in their town
And I never met her grandpa
West Virginia man lived in Fort Smith, Arkansas

And I guess we should call it a night
Before they shut off all the lights
Send us home to either fuss or fight
And you know we′ve been around
Been around this old town
Drinking every night ′til they shut us down


We've been drinkin′, and we've been smokin′
Taking shots and midnight tokin'
Burning that candle up at both ends
Running down that old line
Couldn′t make it there quite on time
Train's about to roll off the tracks

And I guess we should call it a night
Before they shut off all the lights
Send us home to either fuss or fight
And you know we've been around
Been around this old town
Drinking every night ′til they shut us down

Vision′s blurry and my hands are shaky
Been wishing that you'd come and make me
Get up and go and cut the rug with you
A wild Saturday night, we planned to shut it down by 9
4am rolls around too soon

And I guess we should call it a night
Before they shut off all the lights
Send us home to either fuss or fight
And you know we′ve been around
Been around this old town
Drinking every night 'til they shut us down
Oh, drinking every night ′til they shut us down
