Intro verse 1 Here's to the daddies who drive 'em big ole trucks Doing what they've gotta do to fill their babies' bellies up And here's to the mamas who hold the fort down while they're gone Making those miles all worthwhile when they get back home And here's to the teachers who are up at the crack of dawn Learning our little ones to read and write, showing them right from wrong And here's to the doctors who save the little boys and girls Who you never know, might one day grow up to save the world Chorus And here's to the one who ain't in here tonight Telling jokes and blowing smoke, just soaking up that neon light They're fighting fires, fighting crime, fighting for our lives Lord knows they'd rather be right here So here's to all the ones out there somewhere Needing a beer verse 2 Here's to the farmer who was gonna come out tonight But there's hay on the ground and it's gonna pour down and he's running outta light And here's to the banker who gave him a few more weeks 'Cause he knows a man who knows that hard can't lose no more sleep Chorus And here's to the one who ain't in here tonight Telling jokes and blowing smoke, just soaking up that neon light They're fighting fires, fighting crime, fighting for our lives Lord knows they'd rather be right here So here's to all the ones out there somewhere Needing a beer Bridge To all you unsung heroes We owe you a round I'll buy one for you next time And I'll drink one for you now Chorus Here's to the one who ain't in here tonight Telling jokes and blowing smoke, just soaking up that neon light They're fighting fires, fighting crime, fighting for our lives Lord knows they'd rather be right here So here's to all the ones out there somewhere Needing a beer Outro x2
