One Beer Can

Bobby threw a party His parents left town He told a few people who told a few people Word got around It was a legendary evenin' The whole place got trashed It took all day Sunday Four his buddies and twelve Glad bags They got it all cleaned up, hauled it off in the truck Made 'fore his parents got back When they got home he gave them a hug And almost a heart attack 'Cause there was one beer can Lying there on the floor Right behind the sofa You could see it from the door His daddy threw a fit And Bobby, he discovered it There ain't nothing in this world can ruin your whole summer Like one beer can One beer can Bobby had a car His parents paid for He'd take it out on dates And drive it out to the lake But he don't anymore Now all of his friends Are still going out Not a care in the world Just thinking about girls And Bobby sittin' home thinking about That one beer can Lying there on the floor Right behind the sofa You could see it from the door That's all it took You talk about a bummer There ain't nothing in this world can ruin your whole summer Like one beer can One beer can It could've been worse But that ain't the point It could've been a rubber or a half smoked joint The hardest part is it was almost fine They drank a hundred beers and cleared up ninety-nine But there was one beer can (one beer can) Lying there on the floor (there on the floor) Right behind the sofa You could see it from the door His daddy had a fit (his daddy had a fit) And Bobby, he discovered it There ain't nothing in this world can ruin your whole summer Like one beer can One beer can
