Better I Drink

Her memory used to kill me
But I found a remedy
It's a plastic cup with domestic draught
And I start with two or three
And when the floodgates of emotion
They slowly start to crack
I mix it tall with somethin' strong
'Til I don't want her back

Hit me with a shot from the top shelf
I'm pourin' out all of my pain
I'm startin' to think I'm gettin' good at this
The more I feel, the better I drink
Drink, drink, line 'em up, honey
I got a tab and a pocket full of money
Gonna drown my heart in a whiskey rain
The more I feel, the better I drink

Bartender, here's my license
Go ahead and take my keys
'Cause it's a backslidin' to missing her night
And you know my routine

Just hit me with a shot from the top shelf
I'm pourin' out all of my pain
I'm startin' to think I'm gettin' good at this
The more I feel, the better I drink
Drink, drink, line 'em up, honey
I got a tab and a pocket full of money
Gonna drown my heart in a whiskey rain
The more I feel, the better I drink

I'm on that premium, no need for a chaser after
The bartender's lookin' for a stepladder
Bottles so high, I can't read the labels
Do yourself a favor, man, just leave it on the table
On a roll, ain't stoppin' 'til the night is over
A hundred dollar shot makes a thousand dollar hangover
They say, you can't put a price on love
But there's a price on bourbon, so it's close enough

Hit me with a shot from the top shelf
I'm pourin' out all of my pain
I'm startin' to think I'm gettin' good at this
The more I feel, the better I drink
Drink, drink, line 'em up, honey
I got a tab and a pocket full of money
Gonna drown my heart in a whiskey rain
The more I feel, the better I drink

(The deeper I go, the further I sink)
(The more I feel, the better I drink) the better I drink
(The longer I stay, the less I think)
(The more I feel the better I drink) the better I drink, yeah
