the drinking song Songtext
von Nellie McKay

There goes my heart
There goes my wrecking ball
Here lies a part I never knew
I say a prayer
I′ve asked a thousand times
Why you're up there when I′m with you

And I just wanna drink and drink and drink and drink and drink
I just wanna let the spirits help me close my eyes
I'm just gonna drink and never think just keep on drinkin till I die
For my baby's gone to angels in the sky


There goes a friend
I was the lucky one
Here lies a heart that was so true
This is the end
It′s something permanent
Here comes the cost of loving you

And I just wanna dream and dream and dream and dream and dream
I′m just gonna let the memory lift me from this life
I just wanna dream and never scream again just dream until I die
For my angel's flown to heaven
Yes I′ve lost my lovin baby
Now my baby's with them angels in the sky
