He´d get home at five-thirty
Fix a drink and sit down in his chair
Pick a fight with momma
Complain about the kids gettin´ in his hair
At night he´d sit alone and smoke
I´d see his frown behind the lighters flame
Now that same frowns in my mirror
I got my daddy´s blood inside my veins.

[Chorus:]
Fish swim, birds fly
Daddys´ yell, mommas´ cry
Old men sit and think
I Drink.

Chicken TV dinner
Six minutes on defrost three on high
Beer to wash it down then another
Some whiskey on the side
It´s not so bad alone here
It don´t bother me that every nights the same
I don´t need another lover hangin´ around
Tryin´ to make me change.

[Chorus:]
Fish swim, birds fly
Lovers leave, by and by
Old men sit and think
I Drink.

I know, what I am
But I don´t, give a damn.

[Chorus:]
Fish swim, birds fly
Daddys´ yell, mommas´ cry
Old men sit and think
I Drink.

I Drink.
