"Lift Ring Pull Open" lyrics - JIM ED BROWN

There are four words that I printed
On most every can of beer
Four words that I live by
Since my baby's gone away from here.

I've sampled all the different friends
From every brewery
And found one that goes down just right
And soothes my sorrow to a tea.

Lift ring, pull open
It's all spelled out for you
Nothing could be more easy
It's something any fool can do.

Lift ring, pull open
And have a drink with me
As I try to forget I'm a loser
And drown my misery.

Yes, sometimes life seems so useless
Still there are things to look forward to
A little music from a jukebox
And a cool refreshing brew.

A friendly game of poker
With stakes that are too high
Such things will help me pass the time
Until the day I die.

Lift ring, pull open
That's all you have to do
Nothing could be more easy
It's something any fool can do.

Lift ring, pull open
And tip a can with me
As I try to forget I'm a loser
And escape this misery.

Lift ring, pull open
Don't even need a key
I'll just pop a top and drink
To the last drop and drown my misery...
