  • Well, turn that bottle up and drank it
    Crank that jukebox up and Hank it
    Bartender, pour another round
    Here's to our best bad decisions
    Situation no conditions
    Oh and memories we all need to drown
    So fill your cup and raise it up
    Jump in and join the club
    And float this Whisky River reservoir
    We're gonna spend the weekend
    In the deep end of a Dive Bar

    'Cause up in here you're not the only
    Loved-and-left-her-lost-and-lonely-one
    Who's ever swam against the tide
    Thinkin' this is your oasis
    It's the safest of the places
    That a broken heart can find to hide
    So here's a toast coast-to-coast
    With a big ol', "Adios"
    To wishes wasted on them fallin' stars
    We're gonna spend the weekend
    In the deep end
    Of a Dive Bar

    Yeah it's just chapter after chapter
    Of happy never after
    But that's just the way the story goes
    For some bar stool believers
    Wear our heart out on our sleevers
    Just goin' where the neon glows

    Yeah it's just chapter after chapter
    Of happy never after
    But that's just the way the story goes
    Yeah we're just never quite belongers
    Hanger-on-ers way too longers
    Just buzzin' where the neon glows

    Problems, we all got 'em
    Let 'em sink down to the bottom
    Doesn't matter who or where you are
    We're gonna spend the weekend
    In the deep end
    The water's fine, y'all, so just come on in
    To the deep end
    Of a dive bar
    Of this dive bar
    We're talkin' about a dive bar Writer/s: Bryan Kennedy, Garth Brooks, Mitch Rossell
