Drinkin’ My Baby Goodbye Lyrics by Kendell Marvel

Lowdown & Lonesome

2017

[Chorus]
Sittin' on a barstool, actin' like a darn fool, that's what I'm a-doin' today
Yeah, I'm sittin' here drinkin', tryin' to keep from thinkin', I'm boozing my troubles away
Well, hell, I couldn't make her stay, doggone her anyway, can't say that I didn't try
Pour me another one, I'm finished with the other one, I'm drinkin' my baby goodbye
[Verse 1]
Well, every time we disagreed, she was always asking me, "Are you a man or a mouse?"
Well, now that she's gone, she probably that thinks I'm home just a-moping around the house
She probably thinks that she's the one thing that I couldn't get along without
Well, wouldn't it surprise her, I got a sympathizer long as these bottles hold out
[Chorus]
Yeah, I'm sittin' on a barstool, actin' like a darn fool, that's what I'm a-doin' today
I'm sittin' here drinkin', tryin' to keep from thinkin', I'm boozing my troubles away
Well, hell, I couldn't make her stay, doggone her anyway, can't say that I didn't try
Pour me another one, I'm finished with the other one, I'm drinkin' my baby goodbye
[Verse 2]
Every time I try to sit down and talk to her, it always ends up in a fuss
I tried to reason with her right up to the time that she got on that Greyhound bus
Yeah, it'd be better if I could forget her 'cause she sure forgot about me
And if takes all night, I'm going to do it right, I'm going to sit here 'til I can't see
[Chorus]
I'm sittin' on a barstool, actin' like a darn fool, that's what I'm a-doin' today
Sittin' here drinkin', tryin' to keep from thinkin', I'm a-boozing my troubles away
Well, hell, I couldn't make her stay, doggone her anyway, can't say that I didn't try
Pour me another one, I'm finished with the other one, I'm drinkin' my baby goodbye
Pour me another one, I'm finished with the other one, I'm drinkin' my baby goodbye
Hey, Joe, pour me another one, I'm finished with the other one, I'm drinkin' my baby goodbye
