Bone Dry

Lyrics

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
