Except the fall you take when you've been loved and given up
 When you have your heart and soul rubbed into the dirt
 An 80-proof bottle of tear-stopper will take away the hurt

 Give me an 80-proof bottle of tear-stopper
 And I'll start feeling I forgot her
 Get a little loose and lose her memory
 And I won't think I'm close to dying
 Because it dries up all my crying
 An 80-proof bottle of tear-stopper always sets me free

 It ain't easy losing love although it's turned out bad
 All at once you're turning off old feelings you once had
 But I found a helping hand right here in my hand
 An 80-proof bottle of tear-stopper will help me take command

 Give me an 80-proof bottle of tear-stopper
 And I'll start feeling I forgot her
 Get a little loose and lose her memory
 And I won't think I'm close to dying
 Because it dries up all my crying
 An 80-proof bottle of tear-stopper always sets me free
