Drinkin' Thing

[00:08.77] Every day... I tell myself, it's temporary
[00:17.93] That it's only 'cause she's young
[00:22.37] That makes her want... another man
[00:29.33] Eventhough she makes me feel un-necessary
[00:39.15] I've found a way to help me understand
[00:46.85] I've got this drinkin' thing
[00:52.58] To keep from thinkin' things
[00:57.17] About where you've been
[00:59.57] Who you've been with
[01:01.87] What you've done
[01:05.37] And it's a lonely thing
[01:10.83] But, it's the only thing
[01:15.82] To keep a foolish man in love
[01:20.56] Hangin' on...
[01:25.15] If I wait at home, I'll only ask her questions
[01:34.49] She'd probably the truth, so I don't even ask
[01:45.66] So, I sit here on this barstool, feelin' helpless
[01:55.50] And I wonder, just how long ... a man can last
[02:03.22] I've got this drinkin' thing
[02:08.79] To keep from thinkin' things
[02:13.24] About where you've been
[02:15.58] Who you've been with
[02:17.95] What you've done
[02:21.73] And it's a lonely thing
[02:27.27] But it's the only thing
[02:31.98] To keep a foolish man in love
[02:36.85] Hangin' on ...
[02:40.27] I've got this drinkin' thing
[02:45.56] To keep from thinkin' things
[02:50.26] About where you've been
[02:52.57] Who you've been with
[02:54.83] What you've done...
