[Verse 1: R. John Williams with Heather Alden]
There're some friends who think they saw you
Saw you poison the well
And it's true
Things were not going well

[Chorus: R. John Williams]
But I'll be damned if
They understand
Why you drank 'til you couldn't stand up
And I'll be damned if
They understand
Why you drank from the bitterest cup
Come and drink with us all and make up
Come and drink with us all and make up
Come and drink with us all and make up

[Verse 2: R. John Williams with Heather Alden]
Could you foretell
Every farewell?
Would you still want to know?
'Cause it's true
It won't change where you go

[Chorus: R. John Williams]
But I'll be damned if
They understand
Why you drank 'til you couldn't stand up
And I'll be damned if
They understand
Why you drank from the bitterest cup
Come and drink with us all and make up

[Bridge: R. John Williams and others]
We will be damned if
We don't understand
How to rally, how to drink and make up
We will be damned if
We don't understand
How to rally, how to drink and make up
We will be damned if
We don't understand
How to rally, how to drink and make up
How to rally, how to drink and make up
