Oh, the more I drink about it
Oh, the better it drowns
The less I think of her by far
Is better I've found
She took off in the night
Like a sailing ship
And gunned my heart down
From the hip
So, the more I drink about it
The better it drowns
So, I sit alone and wonder how
Someone could be this blind
I never saw it comin'
Hit me right between the eyes
And now just like some country song
The whiskeys my devil friend
And its tellin' me to drink it up
And put her memory to an end
The more I drink about it
The better it drowns
The less I think of her by far
Is better I've found
She took off in the night
Like a sailing ship
And gunned my heart down
From the hip
So, the more I drink about it
The better it drowns
Woo, wash it down baby, wash it down
Alright now listen to this son
It's the smoke inside this honky-tonk
That's bringin' a tear to my eye
It isn't 'cus I miss her
Lord knows I never cry
And the tune that cowboys singin' on
Was never my favorite song
Hey, I don't feel like hearin'
'bout a love that's done him wrong
The more I drink about it
The better it drowns
Ahh the less I think of her by far
Is better I've found
She took off in the night
Like a sailing ship
And gunned my heart down
From the hip
So, the more (More) I drink about it
The better it drowns
Oh, the more (More) I drink about it
The better it drowns
One more time now boys
Oh, the more (More) I drink about it
The better it drowns
