George Jones
Pyramid of Cans
I drink from cans then stack 'em in a pyramid so high
As a monument to how I feel since she told me goodbye
I like my friends around me 'cause they all understand
Why I keep her momery buried beneath the pyramid of cans
The power of the pyramid I don't understand
It's a mystery that gets bigger with every empty can
I stack them high and watch them fall like a castle in the sand
Then I drink one more and start another pyramid of cans
We use to come here often 'cause the band would play our songs
Now I wonder if they wonder why I come in all alone
Lately I'm here every night, they think I'm the biggest fan
But the power that's pulling me in here is the pyramid of cans
The power of the pyramid I don't understand
It's a mystery that gets bigger with every empty can
I stack them high and watch them fall like a castle in the sand
Then I drink one more and start another pyramid of cans
I drink one more and start another pyramid of cans
