Drinkin' My Baby Goodbye

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
