Better I Drink

Her memory used to kill me, but I found a remedy

It's a plastic cup with domestic draft and I start with two or three

And when the floodgates of emotion, they slowly start to crack

I mix it tall with something strong 'til I don't want her back

Hit me with a shot from the top shelf

I'm pouring out all of my pain

I'm starting to think I'm getting good at this

The more I feel the better I drink

Drink, drink, line 'em up, honey

I got a tab and a pocket full of money

Gonna drown my heart in a whiskey rain

The more I feel the better I drink

Bartender, here's my license, go ahead and take my keys

'Cause it's a backsliding to missing

her night and you know my routine, just

Hit me with a shot from the top shelf

I'm pouring out all of my pain

I'm starting to think I'm getting good at this

The more I feel the better I drink

Drink, drink, line 'em up, honey

I got a tab and a pocket full of money

Gonna drown my heart in a whiskey rain

The more I feel the better I drink

I'm on that premium, no need for a chaser after

The bartender's looking for a stepladder

Bottles so high, I can't read the labels

Do yourself a favor man, just leave it on the table

On a roll, ain't stopping 'til the night is over

A hundred dollar shot makes a thousand dollar hangover

They say, you can't put a price on love

But there's a price on bourbon so it's close enough

Hit me with a shot from the top shelf

I'm pouring out all of my pain

I'm starting to think I'm getting good at this

The more I feel the better I drink

Drink, drink, line 'em up, honey

I got a tab and a pocket full of money

Gonna drown my heart in a whiskey rain

The more I feel the better I drink

(The deeper I go, the further I sink

The more I feel the better I drink)

The better I drink

(The longer I stay the less I think

The more I feel the better I drink)

The better I drink
