Red hot memories and ice cold beer
Lord, that jukebox sounds so good to my ear
That's the reason I came in here
Red hot memories and ice cold beer

I can't believe how she burned me down
Her love made me a big man in this town
Then she tells me I'm no prize
So I just came in here to drink me down to size

Red hot memories and ice cold beer
Lord, that jukebox sounds so good to my ear
That's the reason I came in here
Red hot memories and ice cold beer

She took her body and one suitcase
Said she'd had as much of me as she could take
That whole airport wore a frown
Just to know that somethin' that good's leaving town

Red hot memories and ice cold beer
Lord, that jukebox sounds so good to my ear
That's the reason I came in here
Red hot memories and ice cold beer
