VERSE 1:

Pour me another drink please
I’m drowning in all of my misery
I haven’t left here since he left me
So don’t take it easy
Mr. Bartender you don’t know where I’ve been
And I don’t know where I’d be if it wasn’t for my friends

CHORUS:

Jack picked me up in Tennessee
Jim got me through Kentucky
Johnny helped me through my darkest days
Mark was there when he wouldn’t stay
I haven’t had the best company
But at least the whiskey don’t leave

VERSE 2:

Another bar, another town
And he still ain’t coming back around
I just need them to stay so strong
Because I can’t take how he did me so wrong
And now they’re telling me that it’s closing time
So I run to them to get him off my mind

REPEAT CHORUS

BRIDGE:

Oh, I never use them until I need them
But he used me
Men don’t hurt as much when you’re leaning
On the whiskey

REPEAT CHORUS
