Our newest demo...

lyrics

I wish that I
Had a dollar for
Every time
I saw my father pour
Another shot
Of cheap whiskey
One more shot

My mother cries
Every time she thinks
About how much
We saw my father drink
One more shot
Of cheap whiskey
Another shot

"Sweet whiskey won't you take away my pain!"
We heard my father sing.

My mother always wanted a better life for all of us children
She always kept a smile upon her face
She baked pies for pop's restaurant every day.

Now she works all night in a dirty cold factory
Packin' fish 'til seven, gets home after eight
She packs fish all night, gets home at eight.

My father used to own a little restaurant
Where all the locals stopped to have their lunch
One day a big McDonalds moved into town
Six months later pop had to shut the restaurant down.

My mother used to make us breakfast
Bacon and eggs on the plate
Now she works the overnight
Packs fish til seven, gets home at eight.

Last night she was so tired she forgot to say grace.
