Lord Knows I've Been Drinkin'

Well I've been drinking whiskey
Yeah I've been drinking wine
Lord just to help me
Get you off of my mind
Well Now the bottle's near empty
But that won't stop me now
Just 'cause the bottle's gone dry
Doesn't mean you're around

And I need you today
To carry me home
I can't take no more
Of this sleeping alone
Lord knows I've been drinking
Enough whiskey for two
But he'd spare me the sorrow
If was shootin' it with you
Lord knows I've been drinking

Well, it's been awfully cloudy
In this small town these days
And I can't help but wonder
What's causing this gray
Is it heartbreaking season
In Northern Rhode Island
Or am I just stuck in my ways?
Like the wind off the ocean
I'm chilled to my bones and
I can't find the right words to say

That I need you today
To carry me home
I can't take no more
Of this sleeping alone
Lord knows I've been drinking
Enough whiskey for two
But he'd spare me the sorrow
If I was shootin' it with you
And I need you like flowers
Need the sun and the rain
To help them grow stronger
Through heartache and pain
Lord knows I've been drinking
Passed out around two
But I need something stronger
To lose a lover like you
Lord knows I've been drinking
