Lyrics
The Buzz
I was barely seventeen & kind o' scrawny, tall & lean
When I went sneakin' back behind the barn
With a stolen jug o' wine that had a taste o' turpentine
Woke up hungover in the neighbor's yard
CHORUS
It burns when it goes down & my feet don't touch the ground
But I love that foggy feeling just because
My senses all go numb & my words can get rather dumb
But it's worth it just so I can feel the buzz
I must've had some fun the night that I turned twenty-one
And I confess the rumors may be true
I'm told I sang along to each & every drinkin' song
It happens when I've had a drink or two
CHORUS
BRIDGE
Between the swingin' doors & all the sawdust on the floors
Good times never seem to wanna end
So turn the juke box up & don't forget to fill my cup
Cause I can't wait to feel that buzz again
CHORUS (repeat last line)
