Drink That Strong

I could try and hide this pain

I could hop a train

I could head out west where nobody knows your name

Walk through them swinging doors

Try and even the score

Play the fool again and let the heartache take the blame

When it comes to you and me

There’s only one guarantee

You ain’t coming back and that ain’t ever gonna change

I could drink this whiskey till I’m up against the wall

I could eat these pills and never feel another heartache at all

But I’d be just as lonesome as an old sad country song

‘cause weed just gets me high

And the cocaine don’t last long

And they don’t make a drink that strong

I’ve found the only hundred proof

Is the cold hard truth

That without you girl I’m living with the blues

So if I'm gonna hurt either way

I’d rather spend my days

Down on a creek bank hooked on a bluegill

Trading neon for the shade

I could drink this whiskey till I’m up against the wall

I could eat these pills and never feel another heartache at all

But I’d be just as lonesome as an old sad country song

‘cause weed just gets me high

And the cocaine don’t last long

And they don’t make a drink that strong

I could drink this whiskey till I’m up against the wall

I could eat these pills and never feel another heartache at all

But I’d be just as lonesome as an old Hank Williams song

‘cause weed just gets me high

And the cocaine don’t last long

And they don’t make a drink that strong

Yeah, the weed just gets us high

We know that cocaine don’t last long

And they don’t make a drink that strong
