Back in the neighborhood
we're stillin' something good
and if you think I should
we could make ends meet
in the back of my car
you'll find some mason jars
and if you miss the bar
pick yourself a treat
I'll give you a card to show
trust you to keep it low
tell no one where you go
when you leave at night
find yourself at a dead-end
you'll know for whom to send
whiskey is your best friend
when you're out of luck
[Chorus]
We've been doing the best that we can
in these times that prove so hard
and if you'd be so kind as to take my hand
I'll show you where the places are
[Bridge]
oh if they should ask you
forget what you've seen here tonight
oh and if your alibi should fail you
you were never here and nor was I
if you want to take it up
we've got the potent stuff
straight out of Canada
it'll knock you out
oh you know you need me
your bottles empty
I have what you don't have
[Chorus]
oh you know you need me
your bottles empty
I have what you don't have
oh you know you need me
your bottles empty
I have what you don't have
