This is a song about having all the new technology but still having the same old country song troubles.

Verse 1

I used to be a married man till I woke up and she?s gone

No ?Dear John? email   No text on the phone

I checked my Bluetooth doorbell... And there on the screen

Was her, in her Tesla and she was fleeing the scene

CHORUS

So, bartender bring a bottle   I just need one glass

I?m drinking to the future    Trying to drink away my past

Alexa get an Uber       And don?t you tell my friends

That my self-driving pickup truck has left me again

Verse 2

How did this happen?   Where did I go wrong

When did my life become    A sad old country song?

I guess I?ll get through this...It?s just been a bad day

Why just this morning......My dog Aibo ran away

Solo

Verse 3

I?m gonna just lay low...Wait a day or two

Last time I called On Star    They said we was through

All this technology has  made me a lonely man

And my self-driving pickup truck    Has left me again.

CHORUS

So, bartender bring a bottle   I just need one glass

I?m drinking to the future    Trying to drink away my past

Alexa get an Uber       And don?t you tell my friends

That my self-driving pickup truck has     Left me again

Yeah My self-driving pickup truck has     Left me again
