Bone Dry
Baby wants me to go cold turkey, bone dry
No Jack Daniels, no Jim Beam whiskey, bone dry
No stoppin' after work for a beer with the guys
Nothin' in the mornin' to open my eyes
It's hard comin' down from a permanent high, bone dry
I got my doubts if I can make it, a bone dry
It's a crazy world I don't know if I can take it, a bone dry
It's only been an hour, I'm startin' to shake
Sixty more minutes and I know I'll break
How much more of this hell can I take? Bone dry
Well, bone dry, boy, am I dry as a bone?
How'd I ever say I'd ever leave it alone?
Break down, shake down layin' in bed
Covers are soaked and I'm damn near dead and I'm bone dry
Baby took a look at her cold turkey, bone dry
I tried to smile but my mouth wasn't working I was bone dry
This is one promise that I'm gonna keep
Unless I get lucky and die in my sleep
One way or the other I'm gonna be bone dry
Well, bone dry, boy, am I dry as a bone?
How'd I ever say I'd ever leave it alone?
Break down, shake down layin' in bed
Covers are soaked and I'm damn near dead
Bone dry, bone dry, bone dry, bone dry
No Jack Daniels, no Jim Beam whiskey, bone dry
No stoppin' after work for a beer with the guys
Nothin' in the mornin' to open my eyes
It's hard comin' down from a permanent high, bone dry
I got my doubts if I can make it, a bone dry
It's a crazy world I don't know if I can take it, a bone dry
It's only been an hour, I'm startin' to shake
Sixty more minutes and I know I'll break
How much more of this hell can I take? Bone dry
Well, bone dry, boy, am I dry as a bone?
How'd I ever say I'd ever leave it alone?
Break down, shake down layin' in bed
Covers are soaked and I'm damn near dead and I'm bone dry
Baby took a look at her cold turkey, bone dry
I tried to smile but my mouth wasn't working I was bone dry
This is one promise that I'm gonna keep
Unless I get lucky and die in my sleep
One way or the other I'm gonna be bone dry
Well, bone dry, boy, am I dry as a bone?
How'd I ever say I'd ever leave it alone?
Break down, shake down layin' in bed
Covers are soaked and I'm damn near dead
Bone dry, bone dry, bone dry, bone dry
