Misery And Gin Lyrics

(John Durrill/Snuf Carret)

 

 Memories and drinks don't mix to well

 Jukebox records dont' play those wedding bells

 Looking at the world throught the bottom of a glass

 All I see is a man who's fading fast

 

 Tonight I'l lneed that woman again

 What I'd give for my baby to just walk in

 To sit down beside me and say it's alright

 And take me home and make sweet love to me tonight

 

 But here I am again mixing misery and gin

 Sittin' with all my friends and talking to myself

 I look like I'm having a good time

 But any fool can tell that this honky-tonk heaven

 Really makes you feel like hell

 

 I light a lonely woman's cigarette

 And we start talkin' about what we want to forget

 It seems her life story and mine are the same

 Both lost someone and only have ourselves to blame

 

 But here I am again mixing misery and gin

 Sittin' with all my friends and talking to myself

 I look like I'm having a good time

 But any fool can tell that this honky-tonk heaven

 Really makes you feel like hell

 

 But here I am again mixing misery and gin

 Sittin' with all my friends and talking to myself

 I look like I'm having a good time

 But any fool can tell that this honky-tonk heaven

 Really makes you feel like hell
