Track Name: Long Island Iced Tea
Would you fix me a drink
While I wait for her to come home
Would you make up a pallet
So I can drift to sleep all alone

And as the hours pass on by
Would you make a pass at me
And tell me that she doesn’t deserve
This man sitting here
Sipping a long Island Iced Tea

Would you help me ruin my life
Would you help me ruin my life
Oh, I’m not sure
Why this feels
So right

Stop the room from spinning
Wait, is that my head
Girl don’t you move
‘cause I can still drive you through this bed

Just give me a moment
So that I can refuel my drink
And let the drink do the thinkin’
While we do the sinkin’
By the mornin’
We’ll both be
Beneath

Would you help me ruin my life
Would you help me ruin my life
Would you help me ruin my life
Would you help me ruin my life

Oh, I’m not sure
Why this feels
Thoughts and pictures
Burning down
I am not sure why
This feels
Right
Track Name: 1,2,3 (Don't Give Up On Me)
It's been a long day
Out in the red clay
Trying to drill a hole in the ground
That will not be moved or changed

Took a long pause
On an old memory
It will not be bought or sold
It will not be made gray

It's been a long day
Out in the red clay
Trying to drill a hole in the rock
That will not be moved or changed

Took a long pause
On an old memory
Will not be bought or sold
Will not be made gray

1, 2, 3
And that's the way
1, 2, 3
And that's the way
1, 2, 3
The way it must be

Oklahoma
Don't give up on me

So hard I tried
Look in my eyes
Blood shot and dry
I gave my light
To you

Everybody goes
1, 2, 3
And that's the way
1, 2, 3
And that's the way
1, 2, 3
Track Name: Go Round
Where are you going
Can’t you stop it already
Just one more thing
That I don’t think I can do

Too many cities
In too few days
Too many handshakes
Not enough names

And we
Go round
And we
Go round
And we
Go
Round
Round
Hey

I can see all the people
Singing the song
But I can’t hear their voices
Rolling along
No, I can’t hear their voices
Like I used to do
Bouncing my problems
Pushing them through

And we
Go round
And we
Go round
And we
Go
Round
Round
Hey
