Here it comes, gonna rub on it

I drank fifteen beers
That's a whole lot of brew in one night
When you're tryin' to drown the memory from your mind
It took me fifteen beers to get here
I don't know how many more till I leave
Take my change in tears and drink fifteen beers

Well I rolled into Joe's about six-fifteen
And I was ready to pour 'em down
Because at eight o'clock Delilah was a-meeting me there
Well I thought I would have three or four just to loosen up
'Cause we were really gonna swing tonight
I could already see her face and touch her long red hair

Well at nine thirty-five I thought man a live
What could be a-holding her up
Just then a man in a long black Cadillac
Came in and told little Joe filler up
While he was cleaning off the windows a-kissing he saw
In the back and it was soft as rain
It was Delilah sipping on pink champagne

I drank fifteen beers
That's a whole lot of blues for one man
When you try to drown the memory from your mind, yeah
It took me fifteen beers to forget you
I don't know how many more to just feel
While he holds Delilah near I'll drink fifteen beers
Bring it on

I drank fifteen beers
And that's a whole lot of brew in one night
When you're tryin' to drown the memory from your mind
It took me fifteen beers to get here
I don't know how many more till I leave
I'll take my change in tears and drink my fifteen beers

My fifteen beers how many of you, six or seven?
Fifteen beers, just keep bringing them son
Fifteen beers, that's what I need
Bring me that fifteen beers, and by the way
