 The bars are all closed
 It's four in the morning
 Must have shut'em all down
 By the shape  that I'm in
 I lay my  head on the wheel
 And the horn begins honking
 The whole neighborhood knows
 That I'm  home d runk  again
 And if drinking don't  kill me
 Her memory  will
 I can't hold  out much longer
 The way that  I feel
 With the  blood from  my body
 I could start  my own still
 And if drinking  don't kill me
 Her mem ory  will
 These will  old b ones they move slow
 But so sure of their footsteps
 As I trip  on the floor and lightly touch down
 Lord it'  s been ten bottles since I tried to forget her
 But the memory  still  lingers lying here on the gr ound
