Wash Away

Release yourself from the chains that shackle you
Every time you pick yourself up
you let your afflictions tackle you
Straight to the floor again
Your backs to the wall again
Alcohol has bitten my family
It’s taken the good years of my life and thrown them away
Isn’t it time to stop
Haven’t you had enough
Woman you’ll wash away
Rest your head on me
Release yourself from the chains that shackle you
Every time you pick yourself up
you let your afflictions tackle you
Straight to the floor again
Your backs to the wall again
Alcohol has been in my family
Your favorite drink of all is the next one
when is it time to stop
Haven’t you had enough
Woman you’ll wash away
Rest your head on me
There’ll be another day
Because I’m family
I got your back
I’m by myself
I got no one else
I got your back
