With every drink I take, it's gettin' harder to recall 
And I ain't gonna stop until I forget it all 
'Cause once upon a time she used to love me so 
But that was many, many, many beers ago 
All my tin can buddies that help me ease the pain 
One by one they remind me she's not coming back again 
Just how long she's been gone I can't say I really know 
Lord, it's been many, many, many beers ago 

I don't need a watch or a clock on the wall 
To tell me just how long it took for me to lose it all 
And this gettin' over her is going pretty slow 
It's been many, many, many beers ago 

Yeah, all my tin can buddies that help me ease the pain 
One by one they remind me she's not coming back again 
Just how long she's been gone I can't say I really know 
But it's been many, many, many beers ago 

Yes, it's been many, many, many beers ago
