Lyrics

Feel a cold click-clack in my foot as it's smacking the conveyer belt
It's twice as cold outside, I'm feeling colder than I've ever felt
Well the road is long, and the night is black, and I've got no hand to hold
There ain't a damn thing sweet about my sorrow
I'm broke, alone, and it's getting old

Chorus:
There's just one thing I know how to do, not to find any solace but to sit and stew
In my pathetic vain attempt to try and not think of you

Set em up stevie, another round just might kill the pain
Set em up stevie, help medrink her eyes right out of my brain
Set em up stevie, another one I might forget her name
Set em up stevie, ain't got two nickels if it's all the same
She said don't move, she said don't move, don't move

Well I'll catch a death outside tonight
But inside it's smoky, dark, and warm
Another round might do me right
A drink of liquor and I'm true to form
Well the walk home's long through the cold black night
Without her my bed's a block of ice
You ask me if I wanna help you kill a bottle
Believe me buddy you don't have to ask me twice

Chorus
