Drinking Again Songtext
von Dinah Washington

Ooh, it′s almost two
Been sitting here wishing that I could see you

That's why I′m drinking again
And thinking of when you loved me
I'm having a few, and wishing that you were here

I'm making the rounds and buying the rounds for strangers
Yes, I′m being a fool, just hoping that you′ll appear
Sure, I can borrow a smoke, maybe tell some joker a joke
But who's gonna laugh, who′s gonna laugh at a broken heart?


That's why it′s better, drinking again
And thinking of when you left me
Can't you see I′m trying to make it on home?
And ain't got nothing but a memory

Maybe I can borrow a smoke, maybe tell some joker a joke
But, who's got the nerve, the nerve to laugh at my broken heart?

That′s why it′s better drinking again
And thinking of when you left me
I'm trying to make it up on home
With just a memory
I know you heard me the first time
I said I′m trying to make it on home
And ain't got nothing, nothing but a memory
