So much pressure on my chest
Don't let us drown in our sorrow
Oh god let us live up, and let us be the best
And take the burden off my chest
Oh take the tears that we expressed
And leave us now to rest
Difficulty in our lives
Oh let us live up to the fullest tonight
A night to forget the tears and the fight
Let's gravely sing the songs we love
Oh don't let me lose my mind
And place more obstacles in my way
Suppress the troubles here today
Let's drown our sorrow in whiskey
And drink and tell them to miss me
And take the tears that we expressed
Difficulty in our lives
Oh let us live up to the fullest tonight
A night to forget the tears and the fight
Let's gravely sing the songs we love
