Billy Burnette - I'm Getting Wasted Doing Nothing lyrics

rate me

Written by Billy Burnette.

I'm getting wasted doing nothing

My mind is drifting far away

I hocked my guitar for a dozen dollar bills

I wish that there was some other way

I play my songs in a bar down on Main Street

Only one I know of for miles around

And people get to drinking and they fall asleep

And the owner says to move on to some other town

So, I just get my guitar and run

Until I can find someone to make music

I met a girl who works in a drug store

Got sky-blue eyes like you've never seen

I think I'm gonna grab her and walk on out the door

I'm gonna make some music that's just so darn mean
