Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The bars are all closed
It's 4 in the morning
I must have shut 'em all down
By the shape that I'm in
I lay my head on the wheel
And the horn begins honkin'
The whole neighborhood knows
That I'm home, drunk again
[Verse 2]
If drinking don't kill me
Her memory will
I can't hold out much longer
The way that I feel
With the blood from my body
I could start my own still
But if drinkin' don't kill me
Her memory will
[Verse 3]
These old bones, they move slow
But so sure of their footsteps
As I trip on the floor
And I lightly touch down
Lord, it's been ten bottles
Since I tried to forget her
But the memory still lingers
Lying here on the ground
[Verse 4]
And if drinkin' don't kill me
Her memory will
I can't hold out much longer
The way that I feel
With the blood from my body
I could start my own still
But if drinkin' don't kill me
Her memory will
