- Songwriters: Wayne Carson
Every day I tell myself, it's temporary
That it's only 'cause she's young
That makes her want another man
Even though she makes me feel unnecessary
I've found a way to help me understand
I've got this drinkin' thing to keep from thinkin' things
About where you've been? Who you've been with? What you've done?
And it's a lonely thing but, it's the only thing
To keep a foolish man in love hangin' on
If I wait up at home, I'll only ask her questions
She'd probably tell the truth, so I don't even ask
So, I sit here on this barstool feelin' helpless
And I wonder just how long a man can last
I've got this drinkin' thing to keep from thinkin' things
About where you've been? Who you've been with? What you've done?
And it's a lonely thing but it's the only thing
To keep a foolish man in love hangin' on
I've got this drinkin' thing to keep from thinkin' things
About where you've been? Who you've been with? What you've done?
