Dinah Washington
Drinking Again
It's almost two, then sitting here and wishing I could see you
That's why I'm Drinkin' again and thinkin' of when, you loved me
I'm havin' a few and wishin' that you were here

I'm makin' the rounds, and buying rounds for strangers
Yes I'm being a fool just hopin' that you'll appear

Sure, I can borrow a smoke, maybe tell some joker a bad joke
But who's gonna laugh, who's gonna laugh at a broken heart

That's why I'm drinkin' again, and thinking of when you left me
Can't you see I'm tryin to make it own home
And it ain't got nothing but memories
Maybe i can borrow a smoke, maybe tell some joker a joke
But whose got the nerve to laugh at my broken heart
That's why its better drinking again and thinking of when you left me

It's always the same
That same old story
After the kicks there's little old mixed-up me
Tryin' to lose a dream that used to be

Look at me, I'm drinkin' again, drinkin' all over town
Yeah, I'm drinkin' again
