Lyrics
Verse 1:
Well, I lost my job at the sawmill,
Boss man says, "Son, take your fill."
Drove my truck down to Joe's Bar,
Where the beers are cold and the laughs aren't far.
Chorus:
It's better to be pissed off than pissed on,
Standin' tall when everything's goin' wrong.
Raise a glass, let the troubles be gone,
'Cause it's better to be pissed off than pissed on.
Verse 2:
My old girl ran off last spring,
Took the dog and she took my ring.
Thought my heart would just break in two,
But there’s more fish in the sea, yeah, a few.
Chorus:
It's better to be pissed off than pissed on,
Standin' tall when everything's goin' wrong.
Raise a glass, let the troubles be gone,
'Cause it's better to be pissed off than pissed on.
Bridge:
Yeah, life throws curves, and it ain’t always fair,
But I’ve got my boots and this old hat to wear.
Tonight we'll laugh, 'cause tomorrow comes too soon,
Underneath this honky-tonk moon.
Verse 3:
So here’s to the hard times, they just make us strong,
I’ve got my friends, where I belong.
We’ll keep singing our song, loud and long,
With a wink and a smile, we’ll keep moving on.
Chorus:
It's better to be pissed off than pissed on,
Standin' tall when everything's goin' wrong.
Chorus:
It's better to be pissed off than pissed on,
Standin' tall when everything's goin' wrong.
Raise a glass, let the troubles be gone,
'Cause it's better to be pissed off than pissed on.
Bridge:
Yeah, life throws curves, and it ain’t always fair,
But I’ve got my boots and this old hat to wear.
Tonight we'll laugh, 'cause tomorrow comes too soon,
Underneath this honky-tonk moon.
Chorus:
It's better to be pissed off than pissed on,
Standin' tall when everything's goin' wrong.
Raise a glass, let the troubles be gone,
'Cause it's better to be pissed off than pissed on.
Outro:
Yes, it's better to be pissed off, oh it's strong,
Laugh it off, tomorrow we'll still ride on.
With a beer and a song, where we belong,
It's better to be pissed off than pissed on.
Laugh it off, tomorrow we'll still ride on.
With a beer and a song, where we belong,
It's better to be pissed off than pissed on.
