Drink and Cry

Well I'm drunk... cause that's just what i want to be
But a whole shine still, still couldn't kill these mean ol' memories
I'm a tear soaked, heart broke joke and a pitiful sight to see
But that's all right because tonight might be the last for me
Cause I think I'll drink and cry and wonder why I'm so torn up inside
Gentleman Jack if you can't bring her back, but let me make things right
Then I think I'll try to dry up every bottle of booze in sight
And I'll just drink and cry and die tonight
Well this fifth of Jim Beam just might make it seem like it ain't really so bad
And this fifth of Brown just might drown all the memories of what we had
And this Johnnie Walker's red might just kill dead every brain cell making me mad
But all the drink in the world won't give me back the girl that left me so sorry and sad
So I think I'll drink and cry and wonder why I'm so torn up inside
Gentleman Jack if you can't bring her back, but let me make things right
Then I think I'll try to dry up every bottle of booze in sight
And I'll just drink and cry and die tonight
That clock strike tells this fool who fell that it's nearly closing time
And no more can I see what she's done to me for the tears blinded out my eyes
So cheers, here's to the years of sin, one last drink before I die
Bottoms up, so long friend, this here is the end, good bye!
Yes I think I'll drink and cry and wonder why I'm so torn up inside
Gentleman Jack if you can't bring her back, but let me make things right
Then I think I'll try to dry up every bottle of booze in sight
And I'll just drink and cry and die tonight
