Оригинален текст
Life is short despite of your plans
so tell the girls they're pretty while you can 'cause one day they're gone
and all you got left some empty bottles and an old country song plays on and on
I wasted my time with these cigarettes and these ashes are all I got left
Watch this old town nothing's left for me, washed downstream and into the sea
because this big old river gonna kill us in time 'till then we'll drink its weight
in cheap beer and wine, we can drink just as fast as the river is strong
and we'll drink 'till we're gone!
