One day my grandpa asked me, "J.R. why you look so blue?
You've got the whole world out there just a-waiting for you
Never let your worries ever get in your way
Just think about drinking beer on a Sunday."

I got my heart broken, I had just turned nineteen
Never thought a girl could turn out to be so mean
It ended all so tragic but I heard my grandpa say
"Just think about drinking beer on a Sunday."

[Chorus]
Singing, "La la la, na na na na na"
Wash your troubles away
Singing, "La la la, na na na na na"
Just think about drinking beer on a Sunday

Our van broke down outside of Shreveport back in '99
I was sick, Chris was drunk and Erik lost his mind (Damn right)
Told the guys, "Shit ain't that bad, there will be better days
Just think about drinking beer on a Sunday."

[Chorus]
Singing, "La la la, na na na na na"
Wash your troubles away
Singing, "La la la, na na na na na"
Just think about drinking beer on a Sunday
I stood over grandpa in his hospital bed
He pulled me close and told me "Kid, I've never been so scared."
I whispered softly, "Close your eyes and it will be okay
Just think about drinking beer on a Sunday
Just think about drinking beer on a Sunday."

[Chorus]
Singing, "La la la, na na na na na"
Wash your troubles away
Singing, "La la la, na na na na na"
Just think about drinking beer on a Sunday
Just think about drinking beer on a Sunday
Just think about drinking beer on a Sunday
