Well my mind's been goin' 'bout thirty miles a minute
Searching for the things that I can't find
So I'm fillin' up my cup
And I hope that that's enough
To get all this worry off my mind
With the swarpin' and fighting
And the whiskey drinkin'
And the up all-nightin'
And the back porch picking
Then I'll find me a girl
To show what she's been missing
This is all
All that gets me through
I was baptized in Evan Williams
I fell in love on a muddy bank
Now I'm wilder than them all
God sure blessed that alcohol
And I'm acting like I can't get enough to drank
With the swarpin' and fighting
And the whiskey drinkin'
And the up all-nightin'
And the back porch picking
Then I'll find me a girl
To show what she's been missing
This is all
All that gets me through
When my younger days are over
Well I guess I'll change my ways
When I can't wear a shirt
That I had got at Billy days
But now I like corn liquor
And that songs that Petty wrote
No my good ole days ain't leaving son
Let's take another toke
With the swarpin' and fighting
And the whiskey drinkin'
And the up all-nightin'
And the back yard picking
Then I'll find me a girl
To show what she's been missing
This is all
All that gets me through
