Sittin' on a bar stool actin' like a darn 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 doggone her anyway

She can't say that I didn't try

So pour me another one 

Im Finished with the other one

I'm drinkin' my baby goodbye 



Spoken:

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



Repeat Chorus



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



Repeat Chorus
