Sitting on a bar stool, acting like a damn fool
That's what I'm a-doing today
Sitting here drinking, trying to keep from thinking
I'm a boozing my troubles away
Well now I couldn't make her stay, well doggone her anyway
She can't say that I didn't try
Pour me another one, I'm finished with the other one
I'm drinking, my baby, goodbye
Every time we disagreed, she was always asking me
Are you a man or a mouse?
Now that she's gone, she probably thinks I'm home
Just a moping around the house
She probably thinks that she's the one thing
I just couldn't get along without
Well wouldn't it surprise her, I got a sympathizer
As long as these bottles hold out
Well, I'm sitting on a barstool acting like a darn fool
That's what I'm a-doing today
And I'm sitting here drinking, trying to keep from thinking
I'm a boozing my troubles away
Well now I couldn't make her stay, well doggone her anyway
She can't say that I didn't try
Pour me another one, I'm finished with the other one
I'm drinking, my baby, goodbye

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
She got on that Greyhound bus
It would be better if I could forget her
'Cause she sure forgot about me
And if she takes all night, I'm going to do it right
I'm going to sit here 'til I can't see
And I'm sitting on a barstool acting like a darn fool
That's what I'm a-doing today
And I'm sitting here drinking, trying to keep from thinking
I'm a boozing my troubles away
Well now I couldn't make her stay, well doggone her anyway
She can't say that I didn't try
Pour me another one, I'm finished with the other one
I'm drinking, my baby, goodbye
And I'm sitting on a barstool acting like a darn fool
That's what I'm a-doing today
And I'm sitting here drinking, trying to keep from thinking
I'm a boozing my troubles away
Well now I couldn't make her stay, well doggone her anyway
She can't say that I didn't try
Pour me another one, I'm finished with the other one
I'm drinking, my baby, goodbye
I said, poured me another one, I'm finished with the other one
I'm drinking, my baby, goodbye
I said, poured me another one, I'm finished with the other one
I'm drinking, my baby, goodbye
