[Verse 1]
Early Monday morning to Fiday at five
Man, I work work work but I don't climb climb climb
Boss man can shove that over time up his can
All I wanna do is put a drink in my hand

[Chorus 1]
To fill it up or throw it down
I got a forty hour week worth of trouble to drown
No need to complicate it, I'm a simple man
All you got to do is put a drink in my hand

[Verse 2]
Yeah, the parking lot is muddy, can't get to the door
I take my jacked up drop er down in 4x4
She'll down a long neck, warm up the band
All you got to do is put a drink in my hand

[Chorus 2]
To fill it up or throw it down
I'm about to tear a new one in this old town
Five, four, three, two, one, I'll be your rocket man
All you got to do is put a drink in my hand

[Verse 3]
You make me want to go ooh ooh when you dance like that
You got that little tattoo playing peaky boo on your back
If you want to impress me, baby, here's my plan
All you got to do is put a drink in my hand

[Chorus 3]
To fill it up or throw it down
When you drive me home take the long way around
You be my Lois Lane I'll be your Superman
All you got to do is put a drink in my hand

[Verse 4]
My head Monday morning as that alarm clock sings
It goes bang bang bang while it ring ring rings
Yeah I'm ready to roll if you wanna rock again
All you got to do is put a drink in my hand

[Chorus 2]
Yeah, I'm ready to roll
If you want to rock again
All you got to do is put a drink in my hand
Damn right I'm ready to roll
If you want to rock again
All you got to do is put a drink in my hand
Yeah I'm ready to roll
If you want to rock again
All you got to do is put a drink in my hand

[Chorus 4]
To fill it up or throw it down
I got a little hangover still hanging around
Yeah that hair of a dog is saying hey there man
All you got to do is put a drink in my hand

[Outro]
Yeah, that hair of a dog is howling hey there man
All you got to do is put a drink in my hand
Ooh yeah

Eric Church

Eric Church is an American country music singer-songwriter from Granite Falls, North Carolina. After graduating from Appalachian State University with a business degree in 2000, Eric became engaged to a Spanish teacher from Lenior, NC whose father attempted to deter his musical aspirations by offering him a corporate career in Denver. After turning down her father’s offer, Church’s ex-fiance broke the engagement, giving Church motivation to move to Nashville and begin focusing solely on his music. Recollections of this turning point in Church’s life are heard throughout his lyrical portfolio (most prominently in “Those I’ve Loved”).

After a period of being overlooked by record labels and producers, Church was eventually signed to Capitol Records in 2006, making his debut with the album, Sinners Like Me. The album produced four singles on the Billboard Country Chart, “How ‘Bout You,” “Two Pink Lines,” “Guys Like Me,” and the album’s title track.

His second album, 2009’s Carolina, produced three more “Smoke a Little Smoke,” “Love Your Love the Most,” and “Hell on the Heart.”
