Goin’ Straight

[Verse 1: Richard Speight, Jr.]
Well, I got a pall named mescal
Yeah, we're gonna tie one on
I gotta kill quite a few to forget about you
And all the wrong you've done
Nobody wins in this game of love
I'm done tryna quince that thirst
But all the down, all the memories will drown
And I'm gonna get there first

[Chorus: Richard Speight, Jr.]
Well, I'm goin' straight to the bottom of the bottle
I'll be reachin' for that top shelf
I'm throwin' all my pennies for the wishin'
Down the bottom of a Jameson well
Maybe you think I oughta know better
But who better than I know myself
I'm goin' straight to the bottom of the bottle
And you can go straight to hell

[Verse 2: Emma Fitzpatrick]
A little whiskey gonna fix me right up
I'm tired of singing the blues
Oh, wine is fine but it ain't got the stuff
To keep me from thinking of you
You say you miss me, well, I've had enough
I'm over and done feeling used
Yeah, you can come by but I ain't got the time
I got some drinking to do

[Chorus: Emma Fitzpatrick]
I'm goin' straight to the bottom of the bottle
I'll be reachin' for that top shelf
I'm throwin' all my pennies for the wishin'
To the bottom of a Jameson well
Maybe you think I oughta know better
But who better than I know myself
I'm goin' straight to the bottom of the bottle
And you can go straight to hell

[Bridge: Richard Speight, Jr. & Emma Fitzpatrick]
Well, you won't make a fool of me
Oh, you can handle that all by yourself
I got all the friends I need
Right there on that mirror shelf
Well, you ain't been a thing I need
Since I can't remember when
Well, I won't sit up waiting
Good, 'cause I'll be celebrating
Knocking back a drink or ten

[Instrumental]

[Chorus: Richard Speight, Jr. & Emma Fitzpatrick]
I'm goin' straight to the bottom of the bottle
I'll be reachin' for that top shelf
I'm throwin' all my pennies for the wishin'
To the bottom of a Jameson well
Maybe you think I oughta know better
Who better than I know myself
I'm goin' straight to the bottom of the bottle
Goin' straight to the bottom of the bottle
Goin' straight to the bottom of the bottle
And we can go straight to hell
