Beer CansI got laid off my job a week ago todayNow I just can't bring myself to apply for welfare pay Now I'm walking down that big ol' interstate I never thought that this would ever be my fate [Chorus:] I'm just picking up beer cans on the highway It's the only thing I ever want to do I'm just picking up beer cans on the highway I gotta save my dough so I can marry you Well you can drop me off on Highway 34 I hear they got some beer cans there, and I gotta get some more Drive me into town so we can cash 'em in Then we will never have to live in sin [Chorus] In a ditch, I see a flashy shining thing Well it's only a pop top, but it reminds me of a ring The wedding ring you'd wear the day you marry me And that's the day I'm gonna be in ecstasy [Chorus x2] I've gotta save my dough so I can marry you |
