Whiskey Drinking Blues

Each night, I tell myself that I can quit you

'Cause you hurt worse than others do

Then the thought of our last meeting comes a-calling

And I'm right back at the barstool next to you

And I came here looking for a friend

But you broke my heart and treated me unkind

And I came here hoping that my sorrow'd end

By the final call, it was all that I could find

And I never needed no one

I never needed you

But you keep me crawling right back home

And it makes me feel good too

Well, tonight, I needed you more than I wanted

Your tender call brought me to my knees

No matter or wine or water could ever soothe me

Well, you burnt my tongue, and you made a fool of me

And I came here looking for a friend

Well, the times we had, they used to leave me smiling

And I came here hoping that my sorrow'd end

But tonight, you caused me pain and left me crying

And I never needed no one

I never needed you

But you keep me crawling right back home

And it makes me feel good too

So I'm leaving you behind, go tell the world the news

'Cause I'm sick and tired of this whiskey-drinking blues

And I never needed no one

I needed you tonight

And there must be something that I can do to make me feel alright

So I'm leaving you behind, go tell the world the news

'Cause I'm sick and tired of this whiskey-drinking blues

'Cause I'm sick and tired of this whiskey-drinking blues
