If your mind's as cluttered as your kitchen sink If your heart's as empty as your diesel tank If all your white t-shirts have stains If you've got some guts and got some ink, well then We should be friends If you borrow dresses like you borrow time If you dream all day and drink all night If you're looking for love but willing to fight Over men and momma's and Miller Lite, well then We should be friends I don't know you well but I know that look And I can judge the cover 'cause I read the book On losing sleep and gaining weight On pain and shame and crazy trains If you paint your nails while you cut your loss If you like acting like you're the boss If everything your daddy says Is something you can put stock in, well then We should be friends (come on!) I don't know you well but I know that look And I can judge the cover 'cause I wrote the book On losing sleep and gaining weight On pain and shame and crazy trains One, two, three If you use alcohol as a sedative And bless your heart as a negative If you ride your white horse like the wind If what you see is what you get, well then Oh, we should be friends Alright Wohoo Wohoo Wohoo Well then Oh, we should be friends Wohoo Wohoo Wohoo Wohoo Well then Oh, we can be friends
