This song is not about Albuquerque, nor does it swing...enjoy

lyrics

VERSE 1 (Mark):
And I was sittin' in the bathtub goin' down the drain
I'm feelin' whiskey, dust and tractor rust corrodin' my brain
The turnip-bleeding taxman bangin' on my door
Go away, not today, I think I'm dyin'
As my last request, stop your bangin' on my door!
Get outta my-

VERSE 2 (Rick):
Way too much to pay for and not enough scratch
Can't get no work to make it out today, I got no fish to catch
Hope is dyin', wife is cryin', what am I aimin' for?
Goin' down, leavin' town, hittin' bottom
No way to win today, hope is flyin' out the door!
Get outta my-

VERSE 3 (Chris):
She knew my bookie Billy Branham and my banker Bobby Boyd
But that's the kind of conversation that she wanted to avoid
I knew my barkeep Benji Brannigan could even up the score
So off I went to the Dirty Flamingo,
His words of wisdom to me:
Drink myself right out that door!
Get outta my face!

VERSE 4 (Bryn):
They tell me Margaritaville was three stops back,
I took a left turn down at Albuquerque, nearly had a heart attack
Divin' into Whiskey River, sinkin' like a stone
Not today, the better way's packing up and flying
I'm out, without a doubt
I'm gonna get my ass right out that door!
Get outta my face!
Get outta my face!
Get outta my face!
Get outta my face!
