They Oughta Name A Drink After You
Oh I get drunk most every night
Seems like all we do is fight
The more I drink
The less I feel blue
Sometimes I feel like an awful fool
Spendin’ my life on an old bar stool
And yes I guess they oughta name a drink after you
If this date were to be our last
I’d never sit down this glass
It’d take all the booze in the world
To forget you
You’ve left my heart a vacant lot
I’ll fill it with another shot
And yes I guess they oughta name a drink after you
Looks like I had my fill
Guess I better pay my bill
When I started out I only meant to have a few
Someone just said that you left town
I better get a double round
And yes I guess they oughta name a drink after you

Two doors down, there's a barstool,
That knows me by name......(snip)
From the hotel, to the barroom
is just a stumble, and a fall
Sometimes when it gets bad
I've been known to crawl.... ;-)
