SHOOTER JENNINGS
"Higher"

Well, if life's a bowl of cherries
Why is mine the pits
Well, I feel like crap from the bottom of my boots
To my hat to my fingertips
I wanna get drunk get stoned get loud and hang out with my friends
And all I need is a woman's warmth
Baby, that's where you come in

I wanna get high and then get higher
Every city's just a little bit different in the same way
I wanna get drunk and then get drunker
Live every minute to the limit till the end of my days

Well, the bus pulls up to the honky tonk
And there's a line around the honky-block
You know, that's what these crackers love to see
You see I threw out my fishing line and honey I caught you
When after the show in the back of the bus
Oh sweetheart, I know what you wanna do

You wanna high and then get higher
Every city's just a little bit different in the same way
Wanna get drunk and then get drunker
Spend every minute to the limit till the end of my days

Now sit down honey, I'm gonna tell you the truth
For the first time
Oh, no dinner, no movie, no flowers, no malls
No suit, no tie, no cell phone calls
No promises, popcorn, rollerskates, diamond rings or makin' cakes
No brand new fast cars, ice cream candy bars
Checkin' in, callin' back, no kiss me once, kiss me twice
Damn, you feel nice, thank you dear
Do you think I might see you next year?

Stoned and then get stoneder
Every woman's just a little bit different in the same way
I wanna get drunk and then get drunker
Yeah, live every minute to the limit till the end of my days
