Pass another drink for me.

I know it sounds wild,
When you're just a child,
That drinkin' might set a man free.
Give me an hour, two, maybe three.
 
Here's to chaos and order
And me on the border.
Please pass another drink to me.
Would you pass another drink for me?
 
Here's to askin' her will you?
Here's to hopin' that kills you
Please pass another drink to me.
Would you pass another drink for me?
 
Here's to holdin' a baby,
Here's to one more--just maybe.
Please pass another drink to me.
Would you pass another drink for me?
 
Here's to one year and walkin'
Here's to two years and talkin'
Please pass another drink to me.
Would you pass another drink for me?
 
Here's to walkin' the wire
Here's to fallin' in fire.
Please pass another drink to me.
Would you pass another drink for me?
 
For hard work and low wages
With bills pilin' up pages.
Please pass another drink to me.
Would you pass another drink for me?
 
Here's to horrors that happen.
Here's to life, love, and laughin'.
Please pass another drink to me.
Would you pass another drink for me?
 
Here's to God and his glory.
Here's to me in His story.
Please pass another drink to me.
Would you pass another drink for me?
 
For knights and white horses,
Devils and divorces.
Please pass another drink to me.
Would you pass another drink for me?
 
Here's to beatings and bruises,
Here's to whoever loses.
Please pass another drink to me.
Would you pass another drink for me?
 
For long nights of cryin'
And old dreams all dyin'
Please pass another drink to me.
Would you pass another drink for me?
