Drinkin' My Baby Goodbye

Sittin' on a bar stool actin' like a durn fool
 That's what I'm a-doin' today
 Sitting' here drinkin' tryin' to keep from thinkin'
 I'm a boozin' my troubles away
 Well now I couldn't make her stay, well doggone her anyway
 She can't say that I didn't try.
 Pour me another one, I'm finished with the other one
 I'm drinkin' my baby goodbye.
 Everytime we disagreed
 She was always askin' me
 Are you a man or a mouse?
 Now that she's gone
 She probably thinks I'm home
 Just a mopin' around the house
 She probably thinks that she's the one thing
 I just couldn't get along without
 Well wouldn't it surprise her I got a sympathizer
 As long as these bottles hold out
 Sittin' on a bar stool actin' like a durn fool
 That's what I'm a-doin' today.
 Sitting' her drinkin' tryin' to keep from thinkin'
 I'm a boozin' my troubles away.
 Well now I couldn't make her stay, well doggone her anyway
 She can't say that I didn't try.
 Pour me another one, I'm finished with the other one
 I'm drinkin' my baby goodbye.
 Every time I try to sit down and talk to her
 It always ends up in a fuss.
 I tried to reason with her right up to the time
 She got on that Greyhound bus.
 It would be better if I could forget her
 'Cause she sure forgot about me.
 And if takes all night I'm gonna' do it right
 I'm gonna' sit here till I can't see.
 Sittin' on a bar stool actin' like a durn fool
 That's what I'm a-doin' today
 Sitting' her drinkin' tryin' to keep from thinkin'
 I'm a boozin' my troubles away
 Well now I couldn't make her stay well doggone her anyway
 She can't say that I didn't try
 Pour me another one, I'm finished with the other one
 I'm drinkin' my baby goodbye
 Sittin' on a bar stool actin' like a durn fool
 That's what I'm a-doin' today
 Sitting' her drinkin' tryin' to keep from thinkin'
 I'm a boozin' my troubles away
 Well now I couldn't make her stay well doggone her anyway
 She can't say that I didn't try
 Pour me another one, I'm finished with the other one
 I'm drinkin' my baby goodbye
 I said pour me another one, I'm finished with the other one
 I'm drinkin' my baby goodbye
 I said pour me another one, I'm finished with the other one
 I'm drinkin' my baby goodbye
