[Verse 1: Miranda Lambert]
She's on the highest dose of Prozac a woman can take
She likes to pop her pain pills with every little ache
She's got a Tennessee mountain point of view
If you're gonna have one might as well have two
[Verse 2: Ashley Monroe]
Raised up right in the hills of Kentucky
Although she ain't gonna smile 'til she lights up her Lucky
No filter on her mouth or her cigarettes
Oh baby what you're lookin' at is what you get
[Chorus: All]
Yeah we owe 400 dollars to the boys in the band
Gas light's blinking on our broke down van
We're living off truck stop burgers and fries
Crossing our fingers for a vacancy sign
Now who in the hell is gonna pay these bills
When one's drinkin', one's smokin', one's takin' pills
[Verse 3: Angaleena Presley]
She's a rootin' tootin' pistol from the Lone Star State
She mixes up a double at the break of every day
She might get crazy but she don't get mean
Until some drunk cowboy asks her to sing
[Chorus: All]
We owe 400 dollars to the boys in the band
Gas light's blinking on our broke down van
We're living off truck stop burgers and fries
Crossing our fingers for a vacancy sign
Now who in the hell is gonna pay these bills
When one's drinkin', one's smokin', one's takin' pills
[Verse 4: Miranda Lambert, Angaleena Presley, Ashley Monroe, and all]
Well we ain't ashamed of who we are
We like fast men and cheap guitars
Ain't trying to get rich just trying to get by
By playing for tips on a Saturday night
[Chorus: All]
Yeah we owe 400 dollars to the boys in the band
Gas light's blinking on our broke down van
We're living off truck stop burgers and fries
Crossing our fingers for a vacancy sign
Well who in the hell is gonna pay these bills
When one's drinking, one's smoking, one's taking pills
She's on the highest dose of Prozac a woman can take
She likes to pop her pain pills with every little ache
She's got a Tennessee mountain point of view
If you're gonna have one might as well have two
[Verse 2: Ashley Monroe]
Raised up right in the hills of Kentucky
Although she ain't gonna smile 'til she lights up her Lucky
No filter on her mouth or her cigarettes
Oh baby what you're lookin' at is what you get

Gas light's blinking on our broke down van
We're living off truck stop burgers and fries
