Drunk In Heels Lyrics by Jennifer Nettles

Playing With Fire

2016

[Verse 1]
Tired, tired, dog-ass tired
Tired down to the bone
I did a forty-hour week at the Quickie Mart
And another thrity-five at home
Dead, dead, the walking dead
Dead right on my feet
I'd like to put on my pajamas and go to bed
But no one in the house would eat
[Chorus]
If I go to work
I have to make up my whole face
And if once a month, I want to shoot the whole damn place
Well, I just have to deal
If I bring home the bacon
I have to fry it up in a pan
Now I ain't saying that it's easier to be a man
But let's get real
When we get drunk, we do it in heels
[Verse 2]
Dirty, dirty, the house is so dirty
I've forgotten what it looked like clean
It's so sad that my husband went blind
And can't see the dishes sitting there in the sink
Loving, loving, he'd like a little loving
And I'd like to fulfill his dreams
But right now, I'm so tired
Him fixing that oven is a sexier thing to me
[Chorus]
If I go to work
I have to make up my whole face
And if once a month, I want to shoot the whole damn place
Well, I just have to deal
If I bring home the bacon
I have to fry it up in a pan
Now I ain't saying that it's easier to be a man
But let's get real
When we get drunk, we do it in heels
[Bridge]
Yeah, they might be in style
But until you've walked that mile
You'll never know how hard it is to keep yourself from falling
When you're up there and you're carrying it all and
On the tightrope of my life
The men and the babies and the nine-to-five
It might look sexy while I'm juggling
But I'm struggling
[Chorus]
If we go to work
We have to make up our whole face
And if once a month, we want to shoot the whole damn place
Well, we just have to
If I bring home the bacon
I have to fry it up in a pan
Now I ain't saying that it's easier to be a man
But let's get real
When we get drunk, we do it in
5-inch, platform, Louboutins, stilleto pumps
We do it
We do it in heels
