Liquor Store Blues Lyrics

Standing at this liquor store,
Whisky coming through my pores, Feeling like I run this whole block.
Lotto tickets and cheap beer That's why you can catch me here, Tryna scratch my way up to the top.

(Hook)
Because my job got me going...

    A frustrated young man who earns very little from his work (cos my job get me going nowhere)to sustain his life. So meagre that it can't even afford him accommodation. So he decides to try his luck on gambling (lotto tickets) while also trying to drink and forget his sorrows and pains, and if possible gets to a point where he won't have to worry about anything. (One shot for my pain, one drug for my sorrow)

    Cleary he's bidding and drinking having a good time trying to drift away from his pain and sorrow.

    It means that they are working in liquor store and getting drunk by the air in the
    store.
