[Verse 1]Last night I dreamed that I'd been drinkingSame dream I have 'bout twice a weekI had one glass of wineI woke up feeling fineAnd that's how I knew it was a dreamLast night I dreamed that I'd been drinkingCold burn of whiskey down my throatMy hand turned into a rattlesnakeAnd I laughed myself awakeAnd that's how I knew it was a joke[Chorus]It gets easier but it never gets easyI can say it's all worth it, but you won't believe meHold down your liquor or swallow your prideYou'd rather keep it insideIt gets easier but it never gets easy[Verse 2]Last night I did myself a favorI called in sick and went downtownDrove past the local barA cop got behind my carI wish he would pull me over nowLast night I let myself rememberTimes I forgot a woman's nameI blacked out behind the wheelHow tight the handcuffs feelMy daughter's eyes when she's ashamed[Chorus]It gets easier, but it never gets easyI can say it's all worth it, but you won't believe meYou can't expect her to follow your leadShe's fine with her wine and her weedIt gets easier but it never gets easyIt never gets easyIt gets easier but it never gets easyI can say it's all worth it but you won't believe meHold down your liquor or swallow your prideYou'd rather keep it insideIt gets easier but it never gets easyIt never gets easyIt never gets easy
