Sure wish I could forgive you as quickly
As it seems you can forget me
But I got this feelin’ it’ll take me some time
There’s only one thing to do and that’s to drink you off my mind

I keep on thinkin’ that it’s over so move on
And that you ain’t so great so why hold on
I guess you meant more to me than even I knew at the time
There’s only one thing to do gonna drink you off my mind

So I’m getting’ wasted in the corner of a bar I know for sure you never go to
And I’m gonna drink Kentucky whiskey til I’m fucked up to the point
That there’s no damn chance of me tryin’ to drive to your place

The way that I been livin’ is a sin
And I wish they’d come and haul me off to prison
Ain’t no way that it can be that much different
Than this solitary confinement you got me in

So I’m getting’ wasted in the corner of a bar I know for sure you never go to
And I’m gonna drink Kentucky whiskey til I’m fucked up to the point
That there’s no damn chance of me tryin’ to drive to your place
