The Lyrics
I got this e-mail the other day saying some obscure record company might have room for me on their staff and left a number. I called up and ended up talking to someone whose band does parodies of female country artists. Apparently he lost interest when i was too honest and admitted that i had no experience whatsoever with female country artists, but i didn't realize that until after I had written this during the following evening and morning.
Since I filled up my glass
With booze many times
I can't recall
Any of Leann's rhymes
I'd love to help you drink that wine
But my liver can't cut it
Used to love this bar
Drink calmed my nerves
I could walk straight when
Others would swerve
Now if something with alcohol's served:
My liver can't trust it
I used to have a beer
Or twenty with strangers
Now I've got a big ol' fear of
The
Mortal
Danger
Used to start all my mornings
With a bourbon, scotch, and beer
I had a lot of 'shine
But my thoughts weren't ever clear
Now liquor's something you won't find me near
My liver can't cut it
My friends in low places
Made me haggard like Merle
I said bye to my brain cells
Like the Chicks said bye to Earl
I can't outdrink a six year old girl
My liver is busted
I used to have a beer
Or twenty with strangers
Now I've got a big ol' fear of
The
Mortal
Danger
You can get beer for my horses
But now I wouldn't dare
Drink any Jose Cuer-
Vo, I no longer care
When you say it's five O' clock somewhere
My liver is busted
With booze many times
I can't recall
Any of Leann's rhymes
I'd love to help you drink that wine
But my liver can't cut it
Used to love this bar
Drink calmed my nerves
I could walk straight when
Others would swerve
Now if something with alcohol's served:
My liver can't trust it
I used to have a beer
Or twenty with strangers
Now I've got a big ol' fear of
The
Mortal
Danger
Used to start all my mornings
With a bourbon, scotch, and beer
I had a lot of 'shine
But my thoughts weren't ever clear
Now liquor's something you won't find me near
My liver can't cut it
My friends in low places
Made me haggard like Merle
I said bye to my brain cells
Like the Chicks said bye to Earl
I can't outdrink a six year old girl
My liver is busted
I used to have a beer
Or twenty with strangers
Now I've got a big ol' fear of
The
Mortal
Danger
You can get beer for my horses
But now I wouldn't dare
Drink any Jose Cuer-
Vo, I no longer care
When you say it's five O' clock somewhere
My liver is busted

Here's $555 dollars towards a replacement liver. :-)
Do you remember the name of the band by any chance (no, I'm not looking for a job, just curious)? Couldn't be Cledus...
I don't know the name but it was some guy named john miller with no relation records
