bring me along

one more sip and i've hit the bottom
those cocaine nails i know you've got em
ooh child tonight's your night to shine
might be home alone but you're not so alone this time

some nights i'm a Black Label man
and some nights i take whatever i can
have i class enough to ask you once
girl, don't shine me on
bring me along

before it's gone, bring me along

oh, the weekend's here and it's time to blow it
but it feels more like a monday night and you know it
tonight's the night i'll be sleeping in my shoes
that's alright, i've got nothing to prove, nothing to lose

some nights i'm a Black Label man
and some nights i take whatever i can
have i class enough to ask you once
girl, don't shine me on

yes i see just where you're heading
hey blue jean, that's otis redding
way down in the deep south, i know the road is long
it's a simple thing i ask, just bring me along

before it's gone, bring me along

i'm not asking for no discord or no trouble
everything looks twice as good when i'm seeing double
if i scratch your back baby, will you scratch mine?
i hesitate to cross that line everytime

some nights i'm a Black Label man
and some nights i take whatever i can
have i class enough to ask you once
girl, don't shine me on
bring me along

before it's gone, bring me along
