🎤 Sing along

Sing with the chorus

  • I had some help
  • It ain't like I can make this kinda mess all by myself
  • Don't act like you ain't help me pull that bottle off the shelf
  • Been deep in every weekend if you couldn't tell

Sing it again — final chorus

  • I had some help
  • It ain't like I can make this kinda mess all by myself
  • Don't act like you ain't help me pull that bottle off the shelf
  • Been deep in every weekend if you couldn't tell
