Well, I got a bad liver and a broken heart |
|
Yeah, I drunk me a river since you tore me apart |
|
And I don't have a drinking problem, except when |
|
I can't get a drink |
|
And I wish you'd a known her, we were quite a pair |
|
She was sharp as a razor and soft as a prayer |
|
So welcome to the continuing saga |
|
She was my better half and |
|
I was just a dog |
|
And so here |
|
I am slumped, |
|
I've been chipped |
|
I've been chumped on my stool |
|
So buy this fool some spirits and libations |
|
It's these railroad station bars |
|
And all these conductors and the porters |
|
And I'm all out of quarters |
|
And this epitaph is the aftermath |
|
Yeah, I choose my path, hey, come on, |
|
KathHe's a lawyer, he ain't the one for ya |
|
No, the moon ain't romantic, it's intimidating as hell |
|
And some guy's trying to sell me a watch |
|
And so I'll meet you at the |
|
Bottom of a bottle of bargain |
|
ScotchI got me a bottle and a dream |
|
It's so maudlin it seems |
|
You can name your poison |
|
Go on ahead and make some noise |
|
I ain't sentimental, this ain't a purchase |
|
It's a rental and it's purgatory |
|
And hey, what's your story, well, |
|
I don't even care' |
|
Cause I got my own double-cross to bear |
|
And I'll see your |
|
Red Label, and |
|
I'll raise you one more |
|
And you can pour me a cab, |
|
I just can't drink no more' |
|
Cause it don't douse the flames that are started by dames |
|
It ain't like asbestos, it don't do nothing but rest us assured |
|
And substantiate the rumors that you've heard |
