Shooter Jennings - If Drinkin’ Don’t Kill Me lyrics

rate me

The bars are all closed

It's four in the morning,

Must have shut 'em all down

By the shape that I'm in.

I lay my head on the wheel

And the horn begins honking

The whole neighborhood knows

That I'm home drunk again

Chorus:

And if drinking don't kill me, her memory will

I can't hold out much longer the way that I feel!

With the blood from my body, I could start my own still

And if drinking don't kill me, her memory will!

My old bones they move slow,

But so sure of their footsteps

As I trip on the floor and I lightly touchdown.

Lord it's been ten bottles since I tried to forget him,

But his memory still lingers, lying here on the ground.

Chorus:

And if drinking don't kill me, his memory will

I can't hold out much longer the way that I feel!

With the blood from my body, I could make my own still

If drinking don't kill me, his memory will!

If drinking don't kill me, his memory will!

His memory will!
