It goes down smooth
Puts you in a good mood
Starts your day off right
Helps you make it till noon

Ease on back to work
Yes, ma'am and yes, sir
Take your break in the truck
'Cause your old back hurts
Back home you'll have to have a few
Just to get you through the evening news

A beer for breakfast, a beer for lunch
Beer for supper, it just ain't enough
It makes a mighty good nightcap
When your day's been rough
Aw, and in the morning instead of coffee and eggs
I'll have beer for breakfast

When you're mowing the yard
Working on baby's car
Getting your honky tonk on
To a steel guitar

If you're casting a line
Got troubles on your mind
It can help any day
Long as it ends in wine

A beer for breakfast, a beer for lunch
Beer for supper, it just ain't enough
It makes a mighty good nightcap
When your day's been rough
Aw, and in the morning instead of coffee and eggs
I'll have a beer for breakfast

Hey, it goes good with fighting and loving
Beats anything you can cook in an oven

Beer for breakfast, a beer for lunch
Beer for supper, it just ain't enough
It makes a mighty good nightcap
When your day's been rough
Aw, and in the morning instead of coffee and eggs
I'll have beer for breakfast
I said, in the morning instead of coffee and eggs
I'll have beer for breakfast
