Drink Us Away

[Verse 1]

She said, "Boy, I know that it's been a hard road

You're holding onto something and you can't let go

And home ain't the place you've been living in lately, lately,"

She said, "Boy, I know your heart feels like it's made of glass

And if it feels anything, it just might crack

There's hole in the walls, man, you numb it

I'll pick you up, baby,"

And in the neon lights, she said

[Chorus]

Don't drink us away

Don't drink us away

'Cause there's too much at stake

And I don't wanna loose you, babe

There ain't nothing but sorrow

At the bottom of that bottle

Every night, I pray

You won't drink us away

[Verse 2]

She said, "I'm gonna hold you 'till the dawn

'till they got a hold of your whiskey's good and gone

I'm gonna be your rock, your stone

When you're shaky, shaky

It's killing me to tell you but the truth is

I die a little every time I see you like this

'Cause you're worth way more

Than just another poor heart, wasted"

[Chorus]

So, don't drink us away

Well, don't drink us away

'Cause there's too much at stake

And I don't wanna loose you, babe

There ain't nothing but sorrow

At the bottom of that bottle

And every night, I pray

That you won't drink us away, yeah, oh

[Bridge]

Yeah, I'm not the only one who sees you fall

And that little girl down the hall

Well, you don't know it but she sees it all

And she's waiting on your last, last call

[Chorus]

So, don't drink us away

Don't drink us away

'Cause there's too much at stake

And we don't wanna loose you, babe

There ain't nothing but sorrow

At the bottom of that bottle

And every night, we pray

That you won't drink us away

Well, don't drink us away
