There’s A Tear In My Beer

There’s a tear in my beer
Cause I’m cryin for you, dear
You are on my lonely mind
Into these last nine beers
I have shed a million tears
You are on my lonely mind
I’m gonna keep drinkin’
Until I’m petrified
And then maybe, these tears will leave my eyes
There’s a tear in my beer
‘Cause I’m cryin’ for you, dear
You are on my lonely mind
Last night I walked the floor
And the night before
You were on my lonely mind
It seems my life is through
And I’m so dog gone blue
You are on my lonely mind
I’m gonna keep drinkin
Til I can’t move a toe
And then maybe, my heart won’t hurt me so
There’s a tear in my beer
‘Cause I’m crying for you, dear
You are on my lonely mind
Lord, I’ve tried and I’ve tried
But my tears, I can’t hide
You are on my lonely mind
All these blues that I’ve found
Have really got me down
You are on my lonely mind
I’m gonna keep drinkin
‘Til I can’t even think
‘Cause in the last week, I ain’t slept a week
There’s a tear in my beer
‘Cause I’m crying for you, dear
You are on my lonely mind

Hank Williams Jr. performing "Tear In My Beer" with his late father

Pretty good effects for 1988 technology.
