Hey, bartender, pop the top on another can.
Give me ten dimes for this dollar in my hand.
Turn the knob on the jukebox way up loud
I might drive out the whole damn crowd.
but I'm drinking my baby, off my mind.

Hey, Joe, you're lookin' at me like I was half crazy.
But ain't you never loved and lost a real special lady.
She was a sweet lovin' momma, she treated me right
I stepped out on her one too many times.
Now, I'm drinking my baby, off my mind.
Drinkin' and thinking about facin' tomorrow.
Sinkin', sinkin', in a sea of sorrow.
#3.
Hey, bartender, line 'em up down the bar
I'm gonna try and wash away all these lovinâ?? scars.
Now, don't worry 'bout me weavin', I'll be alright.
Show me the door when you close up tonight.
Cause I'm drinking my baby, off my mind.
#4.
No, don't worry 'bout me weavin', I'll be alright.
Show me the door when you close up tonight.
Cause I'm drinking my baby, off my mind.
Yes, I'm drinking my baby, off my mind.(Fade.)
