Beer Or Gasoline

Chris Young

Two dollars shy of a five dollar bill
Last mile I pushed my truck uphill
About hurt me
I left my truck by the pum irght where I parked it
Walked thru the doors of the Last Chance Market
Have mercy, I was thirsty
Guy behind the counter said what's it gonna be
I said I don't know man you tell me

[CHORUS:]
It's a gallon of gas or a cold six pack
One goes in my tank one comes in a sack
Makes life complicated when they cost the same
It aint' no fun to do without one
But I'll do a lotta walkin' if my motor don't run
It's a tough ol' choice to make if you know what I mean
It's either beer or gasoline


I could feel that video camera watch me
Checkin' out the sale on the Old Milwaukee
Three bucks to my name
That cooler had every brand known to man
Tall boys, bottles, and aluminum cans
Ah, what a shame
And it's gettin' pretty bad when you finally discover
It all comes down to either one or the other

[CHORUS]

I could see where this is headed
And I'm tired of talkin'
Cold beer, unleaded
Hell I'm walkin'

[CHORUS]

Beer or gasoline
It's a gallon of gas or a cold six pack
One goes in my tank one comes in a sack
It aint' no fun to do without one
But I'll do a lotta walkin' if my motor don't run
