You were the first thing that I thought of
when I thought I drank you off my mind
When I get lost in the liquor
you're the only one I find
And if I did the things I oughta,
you still would not be mine
So I'll keep a tight grip on the bottle,
gettin' loose and killin' time
I don't know nothin' 'bout tomorrow
I've been lost in yesterday
I've spent all my life just dying
for a love that passed away
There's an end to all my sorrow
This is the only price I'll pay
I'll be a happy man when I go
And I can't wait another day
