I got a reputation going round

Ain't never been the kind to back down

I've thrown a punch or two and gave a few black eyes

But Jack Daniels kicked my ass again last night

I hung in pretty good for a round or two

But he don't fight fair like daddy taught me to

Her memory turned my head and then he snuck up from behind

Yeah Jack Daniels kicked my ass again last night

Always thought this heart was made of steel and bulletproof

But the memory of her taillights fading breaks it right in two

Guess every superman has got his kryptonite

Jack Daniels kicked my ass again last night

Well I didn't bleed and I ain't black and blue

But it ain't hard to tell who got the better of who

Cause in the morning light I'm hard to recognize

Yeah Jack Daniels kicked my ass again last night

Always thought this heart was made of steel and bulletproof

But the memory of her taillights fading breaks it right in two

Guess every superman has got his kryptonite

Jack Daniels kicked my ass again last night

That black label's like black powder for my soul

My head feels like a bomb about to blow

Hell I'm half inclined to give that fuse a light

And let Jack Daniels kick my ass again tonight
