Drunk. Totally Drained.
On the verge of going crazy, on the edge of insane
I know you prayed I d make it, But I never pulled through
I gave up on going on just like I gave up on you
{chorus]
But don t you cry darlin , though it s a cryin shame
I was hooked on the whiskey so bad I didn t know my name when I died
Don t cry Darlin , you know it s not your fault
I was stealing time from the devil and I just got caught
(spoken)
(you know hon, David left you so long ago.)
(He didn t want to darling, but his dying words told you so)
(That strong stuff was always his weakness but any man can be a fool)
(I know that he was so ashamed and sorry)
for all the bad things he did to you
(CHORUS X2)
