I'm pushing you away each time I pull up that ole barstool,
And drownin you in every drop I drink.
I'm telling you to go to hell but Im talking to myself
Cuz youre not around to hear what I think.
Im trying to teach my heart to hate you,
But it aint workin right
Now the truth is Im only drinkin me lonely tonight.
Lord, its more than just thirsty that Im feeling inside
Cuz these tears Ive been crying have left me bone dry,
I wish the bartender had a cure I could buy,
But the truth is I'm only, drinkin' me lonely tonight.
He said Id have to choose between your love and this old bar room,
And I just laughed, but I guess you knew best,
Who cares whose right or wrong tonight, my better half is gone
And this whiskys laying claim to all thats left.
So I'll just order up another and pretend I'm all right,
When the truth is Im only drinkin me lonely tonight.
And Lord, its more than just thirsty that Im feeling inside
Cuz these tears Ive been crying have left me bone dry,
And I wish the bartender had a cure I could buy,
But the truth is I'm only drinkin' me lonely tonight.
And drownin you in every drop I drink.
I'm telling you to go to hell but Im talking to myself
Cuz youre not around to hear what I think.
Im trying to teach my heart to hate you,
But it aint workin right
Now the truth is Im only drinkin me lonely tonight.
Lord, its more than just thirsty that Im feeling inside
Cuz these tears Ive been crying have left me bone dry,
