"Country Club" Lyrics

Lyrics

I was checkin in

On a barkeep friend

Who i ain't seen in a while

I was asking him about

His wife and kids

He cracked a beer and smile

I said John what keeps you so alive

Workin that job for pay

He said son you dont need a reason

To celebrate everyday

Chorus

So I raise a little glass

I Sip a little wine

I say a little prayer for my 9 to 5

Sing a little song

Make a little love

Thats how we pray

Here at the Country Club

V2

I said how do you get thru the hard times

You make it look so easy

You break your back

To cash a check

That barely keeps you breathin

He said If you could see what I see right now

I see a man who needs me

There a'int a bottle on the wall

That ain't seen it all

Thats why i believe

Chorus

So I raise a little glass

I Sip a little wine

I say a little prayer for my 9 to 5

Sing a little song

Make a little love

Thats how we pray

Here at the Country Club

I said pour a little prayer for me John

Pour a little prayer for me

Pour a little prayer for me John

Pour a little prayer for me

Chorus

So I raise a little glass

I Sip a little wine

I say a little prayer for my 9 to 5

Sing a little song

Make a little love

Thats how we pray

Here at the Country Club
