LYRICS, THE STORY IN THE MUSIC

Song Lyrics by: Michael Sean Perry

{c: Verse}

Been working all day under the West Texas Sun

Ain’t even clocked out she’s texting me errands to run

Just want to go home to find peace of mind

Melt away the worries of the day in a bottle with salt and lime

{c: Bridge}

Hon please! blow the leaves off the roof

And clean out the gutters while you’re there

You’ll see the other stuff needs getting done

Up on the Frigidaire

Pressure wash both of the cars and the driveway too

Use the green soap not the blue

And don’t forget to get the leaves out the pool

{c: Chorus}

Give me Two Beers and a Hammock

I deserve a break now damnit

Been working hard all day long and I need to say I’ve had it

A soft net and a long neck are calling out my name

Two Beers and a Hammock, honey and I’m back in the game

{c: Verse}

My work week is so long it is a travesty

Forty hours a week, that sounds part time to me

Sunday has come it’s my day of rest

Barbecue a roast and watch football on the TV set

{c: Bridge}

Hon please! sweep off the sidewalk

And can you please trim the trees?

Pick the weeds out the flower bed

You’ll have to get on your knees

Mow the lawn and whack the weeds and

Get it done before noon

Not to be a nag but on the mower put the bag

Or you’ll be sweeping up clippings too

{c: Bridge}

Hon please! Take the garbage down to the road

And wash both cars again

Use the green soap this time I’m tired of telling you man!

Sweep off the deck and clean up the hot mess

That your dog left for you

And when you get done instead of having fun

Come back and tell me that you’re through

{c: Chorus}

Give me Two Beers and a Hammock

I deserve a break now damnit

Been working hard all week long and I need to say I’ve had it

A soft net and a long neck are calling out my name

Two Beers and a Hammock,  honey and I’m back in the game

{c: Outro}

You should be glad I’m not half in the bag upon some honky tonk barstool

I been working hard and staying home and taking car like I do

A margarita in a beach chair for folks in fancy magazines

Give me Two Beers and a Hammock, that’s all I need.
