Lyrics:

She's Hard to Love Sober

Put on your coat son and take me to town
I'm fresh out of beer and there's snow coming down
Being trapped here with Grandma just makes it seem colder
She's my reason for living her but she's hard to love Sober

I came home from Korea in 1953
to the prettiest girl in Lebanon Tennessee
But looks are deceiving let me tell you the truth
She's a bear in a dress with an impacted tooth

some people mellow with age like a fine vintage wine
others get rotten like fruit left on the vine
and your Grandma gets meaner as she gets older
I can't live without her, but she's hard to love Sober

She tells me she's worried about my wicked soul
and If I don't change my ways then to hell I will go
I said I aint really worried and that made her mad
But after living with her Hell can't be that bad

Some timez I think I can't go on living like this
I'd shoot her down but I'm scared I might miss
The cops might arrest me and lock me away
but what if they didn't and instead made me stay?

some people mellow with age like a fine vintage wine
others get rotten like fruit left on the vine
and your Grandma gets meaner as she gets older
I can't live without her, but she's hard to love Sober

Yes I took a vow to make her my wedded wife
to have and to hold for the rest of my life
for better for worse for richer for poorer
I swore Til death do us part, but I never said sober
