Various Artists Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'll trade you these tears for a couple of beers
And this snot for a shot of whiskey
You can kiss on these lips for a couple of sips
But do not get too frisky

Well, I got to use the restroom but there ain't a stall for two
So squeeze on in and don't breathe in 'cause I won't go solo on you
Um, I think there's a snake in my guitar
Use it

Well, I'd like to eat spaghetti but you want vindaloo
So I'll leave in a hurry and order some curry 'cause I won't go solo on you

Oh, you and me, we're together through and through




So if you move to China, I'll be right behind ya
'Cause I won't go solo on you, yee-haw!
