Webb Pierce - I'm Gonna Hang One On Tonight Lyrics

Every time I take a drink I make an awful face
I'm not trying to get laughs I just can't stand the taste
But if the drink will ease the pain and make this heartache end
When I drink the bottle dry I'll put her up again

(Chorus)
Uncork another jug
And throw away the plug
I'm gonna do this thing up right
Since I'm not a drinking man
You can make it any brand
I'm gonna hang one on tonight

This must be the place to come for lonely guys like me
For I see people trying hard to drown their misery
Maybe I'll forget her if I drink the bottle dry
I don't have a thing to lose at least I'm gonna try

Uncork another jug
And throw away the plug
I'm gonna do this thing up right
Since I'm not a drinking man
You can make it any brand
I'm gonna hang one on tonight

(Repeat chorus)
