Can't Get There from Beer
Liquid Healing: A 90-Proof Balm for Heartache
Lyrics
Most Fridays you can find me
Usually, on Fridays, I'm engaged in the act of drinking.
Sippin’ on a 12 ounce can
I'm consuming a 12-ounce can of a beverage.
Low key nothing crazy
In a relaxed manner, nothing overly intense or wild.
Sitting kinda listening to the cover band
Sitting and somewhat paying attention to the band that's playing cover songs.
Boys this ain’t that kind of night
This isn't the type of evening for partying or extreme fun.
Wanna get higher than a neon sign
I want to get more intoxicated than a bright neon sign.
Ain’t talking ‘bout tipsy gimme something that’ll hit me
I don't want just tipsy; I want something stronger.
Just a little stronger
I desire a drink that's more potent.
Last a little longer
Wanting the effects of the drink to last for an extended period.
Out burn her hurting on me
I want to overcome the pain caused by someone else.
Like a single barrel whiskey
Like a high-quality, single barrel whiskey.
A temporary fix me
Seeking a temporary solution for feeling better.
90 proof bandaid for the heart on my sleeve
Describing the drink as a strong remedy for emotional pain.
Miller Bud or Coors Light’s ain’t gonna do the job right
Ordinary beers won't suffice for the purpose.
Make this missing her disappear
Wanting the feeling of missing someone to vanish.
No you can’t get there from beer
You can't achieve that emotional state by consuming beer.
I can feel it liquid healing
Feeling a sense of healing through the drink's effects.
Hell I’m already coming around
Feeling the positive effects of the alcohol.
See that brunette in that black dress
Noticing a woman and considering approaching her.
I don’t know if she's alone but I’m about find out
Unsure if the woman is alone, but wanting to find out.
Either way I’m game for another round that’s
Willing to have another drink regardless of the woman's situation.
Just a little stronger
Seeking a more potent drink.
Last a little longer
Desiring the effects of the drink to last longer.
Out burn her hurting on me
Wanting to surpass the pain caused by another person.
Like a single barrel whiskey
Comparing the strength of the drink to a single barrel whiskey.
A temporary fix me
Desiring a temporary solution to feeling better.
90 proof bandaid for the heart on my sleeve
Viewing the drink as a strong remedy for emotional pain.
Miller Bud or Coors Light’s ain’t gonna do the job right
Regular beers won't be effective for this purpose.
Make this missing her disappear
Wanting to make the feeling of missing someone disappear.
No you can’t get there from beer
Emphasizing that beer won't help reach that emotional state.
Where I’m going tonight no amount of Coors light
No amount of ordinary beer will help overcome missing someone.
Is gonna make missing her disappear
Beer won't alleviate the feeling of missing someone.
Just a little stronger
Seeking a stronger drink.
Last a little longer
Wanting the effects of the drink to last longer.
Out burn her hurting on me
Desiring to surpass the pain caused by another person.
Like a single barrel whiskey
Comparing the strength of the drink to a single barrel whiskey.
A temporary fix me
Seeking a temporary solution to feeling better.
90 proof bandaid for the heart on my sleeve
Viewing the drink as a strong remedy for emotional pain.
Miller Bud or Coors Light’s ain’t gonna do the job right
Regular beers won't be effective for this purpose.
Make this missing her disappear
Trying to eliminate the feeling of missing someone.
No you can’t get there from beer
Reiterating that beer won't lead to overcoming that emotional state.
