See the man run from his problems
See the man face down in a bottle
See the man realize ol' ghost ride along
But you can't drive
When you're too damn stoned
See the man in a three piece suit
See the man in a Rolls-Royce car
You know that man's realized that he can't buy friends
But he buys all the drinks all night long

You see the man goin' down in flames
It ain't about money
Lord ain't about fame
You see that man goin' down on his knees
As he begs for one more please

Shoot 'em down
I didn't pull the trigger but I gave him the gun
One more round
In the chamber then it's done
If he could see
Through these eyes I've seen
Then he'll put that bottle down
Stop drinking to the ground

See the man turning off the bar lights
See the man thank God to see his home light
You see that man dead sober when he walks through the door
But when you drink all alone you can drink till four
See the man pickin' out a song
See the man put the guitar down
We see that man realize another day's passed by
But you can't find the bed when you spinnin' around

See the man going down in flames
It ain't about money
Lord it ain't about fame
You see the man going down on his knees
As he begs for one more please

Shoot 'em down
This time I pulled the trigger till I emptied the gun
No more rounds
In the chamber then it's done
Lord I see
Through these eyes I've seen
Go on and put that bottle down
Stop drinking to the ground
Shoot 'em down
This time I pulled the trigger till I emptied the gun
No more rounds
In the chamber then it's done
Lord I see
Through these eyes I've seen
Go on and put that bottle down
Stop drinking to the ground
