Billy Dean - Misery And Gin lyrics

(John Durrill/Snuf Carret)

Memories and drinks don't mix to well

Jukebox records dont' play those wedding bells

Looking at the world throught the bottom of a glass

All I see is a man who's fading fast

Tonight I'l lneed that woman again

What I'd give for my baby to just walk in

To sit down beside me and say it's alright

And take me home and make sweet love to me tonight

But here I am again mixing misery and gin

Sittin' with all my friends and talking to myself

I look like I'm having a good time

But any fool can tell that this honky-tonk heaven

Really makes you feel like hell

I light a lonely woman's cigarette

And we start talkin' about what we want to forget

It seems her life story and mine are the same

Both lost someone and only have ourselves to blame

But here I am again mixing misery and gin

Sittin' with all my friends and talking to myself

I look like I'm having a good time

But any fool can tell that this honky-tonk heaven

Really makes you feel like hell

But here I am again mixing misery and gin

Sittin' with all my friends and talking to myself

I look like I'm having a good time

But any fool can tell that this honky-tonk heaven

Really makes you feel like hell
