High on the Thought of You

George Jones · A Good Year For The Roses - The Complete Musicor Recordings 1965- [2009]

I don't need the help of the red wine in the glass to ease my mind

I found out a way to forget the way you left me here behind

I drink up a mem'ry and it takes me back to places that I've been

I just think about you and I'm high on the thought of you again.



I can see me anytime I want to in my favorite chair at home

I played like a pony when the children needed one to ride on

With each memory I drink it makes me feel so good and warm within

I just think about you and I'm high on the thought of you again.



--- Instrumental ---



We lived in the world that was ours till he came between you and me

So I'll keep drinkin' memories 'cause the past is for I live in

I just think about you and I'm high on the thought of you again.



I just think about you and I'm high on the thought of you again...
