The Journey Home

Just one pint in a cosy warm pub
Keep us away from the family we love

Just one more pint - the evening won’t end
The time you have a laugh with a friend

Just one more pint, a pint between mates
Talking about all our trophies and mistakes

Just one more pint, A pint for the road.
We start talking about secrets we’ve been told

Just one more pint relaxed and unaware
Of people were talking about standing right there

Just one more pint - We’ll put the world to right
Standing up for what we don’t really care about all through the night.

Just one more pint although the evening is young
We may try a nightclub too old for this fun.

Just one more pint and then the stumble home
Fingers too fat to type on the phone

Just one more pint- then we’ll call it a night
Stumbling back with fast food in sight
