Got laid off at the factory Ain't enough jobs to go around Everyones needing work in this ole steel town Novembers come and Christmas is just round the bin I'd really hate to let my children down again Chorus: It's times like these I wish were a drinking man Id tip that bottle back And give it all I can I'd numb the pain If I just give in Oh it's times like these I wish I were a drinking man Verse: Mamas getting worse they say her minds nearly gone Its gotten so bad she dont even know who I am And our family is a fighting for what ain't even yet there own I wish I had the means to make amends Chorus: It's times like these I wish were a drinking man Id tip that bottle back And give it all I can I'd numb the pain If I just give in Oh it's times like these I wish I were a drinking man Bridge: bartender pour a shot and maybe a beer On send thought ill take whats in that coffee can Tag: It's times like these I wish I were It's Times like these I wish I were Times like these I'm thankful I ain't a drinking man I'd say set em up joe And I'd knock em down with friends If I could just numb the pain Every now and then 9 But I've been sober 3 years now And that ain' t who I am But it's times like these I could numb the pain If I just give in Mamas getting worse they say her mind is nearly gone Ya gotten so bad she barely knows who I am And the family is fighting for what ain't even yet there own I wish I had the means to make amends It's times like these I wish were a drinking man Id tip that bottle back And forget all I can I could numb the pain If I just give in Oh it's times like these I wish I were a drinking man So bartender pour a shot and maybe a beer On send thought just give me what in that coffee can It's times like these I wish I were a drinking
