MARY GAUTHIER
 I DRINK

 He'd get home at 5:30, fix a drink,
 And sit down in his chair,
 pick a fight with mama,
 complain about the kids getting in his hair.
 At night he'd sit alone and smoke
 I'd see his frown behind the lighters flame
 Now that same frown's in my mirror
 I got my daddy's blood inside my veins

 CHORUS
 Fish swim
 birds fly
 daddy's yell
 mamas cry old men
 sit and think
 I drink

 Chicken TV dinner
 6 minutes on defrost, 3 on high
 a beer to wash it down with
 then another, some whiskey on the side
 It's not so bad alone here
 it don't bother me that every nights the same
 I don't need another lover
 hanging round, trying to make me change

 CHORUS
 Fish swim
 birds fly
 lovers leave
 by and by
 old men
 sit and think
 I drink

 BRIDGE
 Yes I know
 What I am
 No I don't
 Give a damn

 CHORUS
 Fish swim
 birds fly
 Daddy's yell
 Mama's cry
 old men
 sit and think
 I drink
