Sittin' on a bar stool actin' like a darn fool
|
That's what I'm a doin' today
|
Sitting' here drinkin' tryin' to keep from thinkin'
|
I'm a boozin' my troubles away
|
Well now I couldn't make her stay, "dog-gone her anyway."
|
She can't say that I didn't try
|
So pour me another one
|
Im Finished with the other one
|
I'm drinkin' my baby goodbye
|
|
Spoken:
|
Everytime we disagreed
|
She was always askin' me
|
Are you a man or a mouse
|
Now that she's gone
|
She probably thinks I'm home
|
Just a mopin' around the house
|
She probably thinks that she's the one thing
|
I just couldn't get along without
|
Well wouldn't it surprise her I got a sympathizer
|
As long as these bottles hold out
|
|
Repeat Chorus
|
|
Every time I try to sit down and talk to her
|
It always ends up in a fuss
|
I tried to reason with her right up to the time
|
She got on that Greyhound bus
|
It would be better if I could forget her
|
'Cause she sure forgot about me
|
And if takes all night I'm gonna' do it right
|
I'm gonna' sit here till I "can't see."
|
|
Repeat Chorus
|
