Yes, I'm drinkin' once again
I'm runnin' 'round with my old friends
Heartache, pain and misery
I can always count on them
And the blues still come around
I know they'll never let me down
They're old friends that I can count on
And there's one thing that I found
The blues won't ever leave me
All alone they way you did
Heartache seems to be here
Every moment that I live
And misery keeps me company
And the whiskey's good for pain
And old friends are forever
That's why I'm drinkin' once again
I guess you thought I'd be alone
Since you walked out and done me wrong
I don't mean to sound unfeelin'
I hardly noticed you were gone
Cause I been here with my old friends
They day you left they moved back in
So how could I be lonely
Now that I'm drinkin' once again
The blues won't ever leave me
All alone they way you did
Heartache seems to be here
Every moment that I live
And misery keeps me company
And the whiskey's good for pain
And old friends are forever
That's why I'm drinkin' once again
