It’s late at night

Still a little high

Can hear the voices out the corner of my eye

Like they are drinking across the street

And are raising their voice in victory

But it’s a quiet country beat

I know this song I’ve never heard

I strain my ears to see it better.

But it’s just a little too far for me to make out the words.

I’m not even sure the language.

But I recognize it all the same.

I know better than to mention it to you.
