George Jones - They've Got Millions In Milwaukee lyrics

They ought to have a celebration And pay their respects to me Put my name up in neon lights And then give me the key To the city I've helped make so rich By spending my last dime On a cold beer in some honky tonk To get a woman off of my mind 'Cause they've got millions in Milwaukee That they made off of guys like me Who can't stand the pain, a hurting' thing When their baby leaves They ought to put my picture on the beer can So that woman of mine can see They've got millions in Milwaukee If I only had a penny For all the suds I've soaked I might even own me a brewery Instead of being' broke I know I spend a fortune And the end is nowhere in sight Bartender, how about one free round Before you close it up tonight 'Cause they've got millions in Milwaukee That they made off of guys like me Who can't stand the pain of hurting' things When their baby leaves You ought to put my picture on the beer can So that woman of mine can see They've got millions in Milwaukee And thanks to guys like me They've got millions in Milwaukee
