Tie One On

Lyrics

Verse
Well it feels like forty hours until Friday, on this Thursday afternoon
And I know that I'm gonna go crazy, if it doesn't get here real soon
Time may fly, or so I hear them say, but it's creepin' by today
I can't wait to punch the clock, head out to the dock, and spend some of my hard earned pay

Chorus
It's time to tie one on
Oh, it's been too long since I got that far gone
Oh-oh, it's time to tie one on

Verse
Well the lure is irresistible, but you got to get it right, in this cutthroat world of ours
Must be something in the water that’s brewing for a fight, in the rainbows, or in the stars
And so I'll head to work on Monday, reeling in my lines, where' I'll face another week
Goin' through the motions, cast aside the deep devotions, ‘til I'm up another creek

Chorus
Where I can tie one on
Oh, it's been too long since I got that far gone
Oh-oh, it's time to tie one on

Verse
I hate dealing with the office when the sharks are all around, lurking to take a bite
And the barracuda wait to jump and bring you down; can be scary but hey, I’m alright
I prefer the small fry, got no reason to go deeper than the streams that fill up my ol’ pond
I’ll let others chase the big ‘uns, I just need a little keeper, and a place where I can tie one on

Chorus
I need to tie one on
Oh, it's been too long since I got that far gone
Oh-oh, it's time to tie one on

I need to tie one on
Oh, it's been too long since I got that far gone
Oh-oh, it's time to tie one on
