Well it's hard to stay inside when the bar calls your name
And pretty soon this hotel room is gonna drive me insane
So I'm gonna hit the streets tonight
And make my way towards the neon lights
And order a drink in a downtown dive until I forget my name
And if I make it out alive I'll call, you know I will
If I can just survive one more night in Jacksonville
Well the powder picks me up and the pills, they pull me down
When the evenin' ends they're the only friends that seem to stick around
I think I'll spend the rest of my days with poison in my veins
Keep livin' the lie that Rock 'n' Roll's alive, that things are gonna change
And if I make it out alive I'll call, you know I will
If I can just survive one more night in Jacksonville
I spent the better part of my early twenties medicated and always runnin'
From the man my mamma wanted me to be
Now the nights are lonely and hard to remember another show, another bartender
Another place, another face that'll fade away with time
And if I make it out alive I'll call, you know I will
If I can just survive one more night in Jacksonville
If I make it out alive I'll call, you know I will
If I make it out alive I'll call, you know I will
And if I make it our alive I'll call, you know I will
And if I make it out alive I'll call, you know I will
And if I make it out alive I'll call, you know I will
Yeah I'll call, you know I will
Yeah I'll call, you know I will
Yeah I'll call, you know I will
Yeah I'll call, you know I will
Yeah I'll call, and you know I will
Yeah I'll call, you know I will
Yeah I'll call, you know I will
