Drinkin’ Again
Doris Tauber, Johnny Mercer
Drinkin' again
Thinking of when you loved me
Having a few
Wishing that you were here
Making the rounds
Buying a round for total strangers
Just being a fool
'cause I keep hoping, hoping, hoping you'll appear
Sure I can borrow a smoke
I can sit here all night and tell these jokers some jokes
But who wants to laugh, who's gonna laugh
At a broken heart?
Oh, my heart is aching, I swear it's breaking
And I'm drinking again
Thinking of when you loved me
And I'm tryin' to get home
With nothing, nothing but a memory
Yes, I'm dying to get home
Dying to get home
And I got nothin' but a bottle of beer
And just my memory
