I was sitting at the bar with my buddies
discussing the state of the world.
Everyone had an opinion,
but then somebody turned and asked Earl,
'Is the stock market gonna recover?
Or will it wind up in the tank?'
He looked down at his glass of bourbon and said,
'I love her, she hates me, and I drink.
Wall Street don't run out by my house,
I don't put much stock in their game.
Just three thing in this world concern me:
I love her, she hates me, and I drink.'
Well he went back to minding his memories,
for awhile there we left him alone.
We went back to minding our business,
then the cowboys and packers came on.
Well Bill tapped ole Earl on his shoulder,
asked 'Who do you like in this game?'
He said, 'For me, the game's over.
I love her, she hates me, and I drink.
You can count on a winner and a loser.
What I think don't change a damn thing.
Just three things in this world concern me.
I love her, she hates me, and I drink.'
'Why don't yall leave me the hell alone...'
'Yeah Wall street don't run out by my house,
it's a far cry from memory lane.
Just three things in this world concern me,
I love her, God she hates me, I drink.'
