One More Drink

Mel Tillis · Greatest Hits, Vol. 2 [Kapp] [1971]

(Jim Owen)



See that house across the street from this barroom bottle

The people who live in it I love so

So I come here every night and I pray that I'll see them

Think I'll have one more drink and then I'll go.



There's the lights in her bedroom tonight bottle

Just like me she's lonely I know

Just to hold her in my arms posses all her charms

Think I'll have one more drink and then I'll go.



--- Instrumental ---



Yes my children are already sleeping bottle

And how much I miss them they'll never know

But the judge won't let me see them

That they think that I don't love them.



Think I'll have one more drink and then I'll go.



Oh, she blames all our troubles on you bottle

But anyone can see that isn't so

I can take you or leave you heaven knows that I don't need you

Think I'll have one more drink and then I'll go.



Think I'll have one more drink and then I'll go...
