Help Me Make It Through the Yard

Help Me Make It Through the Yard

Take the rosebush from my hair,
Lord, it has a lot of thorns,
What's the sprinkler doing on
At this hour of the morn?

Comin' home at five a.m.,
Lord, the sidewalk sure is hard,
Guess I drank too much again,
Help me make it through the yard.

     I don't care what's right or wrong,
     I'm too drunk to even stand,
     I ain't asking your assistance,
     But you're standing on my hand

Put some coffee on the stove,
And we'll try to start the car,
Let me get [a breath of air
Help me make it through the yard.
