Lyrics

He asked me for a dollar
I said go get a job
And I turned up my collar
And started walking off
He said I don't blame you
I know what you think
I just spend your money
To buy another drink

But you don't know jack
Double shot
80 proof
On the rocks
Until you've lost it all
And you can't go back
To your life
And your kids
And your ex-wife
With just a telephone call
If you think it's just a bottle
In an old brown paper sack
You don't know jack

And he showed me a picture
Of two little girls
Wearing easter dresses
Hair done up in curls
He said god bless their mama
She said I couldn't stay
Buddy if you were wondering
How could I throw it all away?

But you don't know jack
Double shot
80 proof
On the rocks
Until you've lost it all
And you can't go back
To your life
And your kids
And your ex-wife
With just a telephone call
If you think it's just a bottle
In an old brown paper sack
You don't know jack

If you've never felt a fire
Running through your veins
If you've never seen the devil
Face to face
You don't know jack
Double shot
80 proof
On the rocks
Until you've lost it all
So brother just be glad
And tonight
Hold your kids
Kiss your wife
And when you talk to god
Count up all your blessings
And thank the good lord that,
You don't know jack
You don't know jack
