Alcohol in the Bloodstream Songtext
von Ian Tyson

I came home to find you were gone On a cold grey morning I remember now that′s the way you said it would be Like living in a bad dream Alcohol in the bloodstream Goin' to have to do - ′til I forget about you Ooo- 'til I forget about you
Some dead wild flowers And a bottle of vodka on the kitchen table Flowers for the good times and booze for the bad I can curse I can scream But alcohol in the bloodstream 'Bout the best I can do - ′til I forget about you Ooo - ′til I forget about you
Now my strings are all unstrung Everything I could do I've done Just waiting for daylight to come, to come
I wonder where you′ve gone And I wonder how long I can take this loneliness Two hundred first calf heifers and a deal is a deal I guess Then I'll roll my bed get away clean Alcohol in the bloodstream Goin′ to quit you too Then I'll forget about you Ooo - ′til I forget about you Ooo - 'til I forget about you (one] down-stroke) Ooo -'til I forget about you
