Some people say I drink because you left me
And they say that wine won't drown your memory
But the reason that I drink is not to get you off my mind
I just heard this was a good year for the wine
It doesn't bother me now that you're gone and I haven't thought about you in so long
And I'm not in this honky tonk cause you're no longer mine
I just heard this was a good year for the wine
It's not the neon lights that drove me to this tavern
All the lonely sound you're running to inside
It's not my losing you that keeps me drinking all the time
I just heard this was a good year for the wine
It doesn't bother me now...
I just heard this was a good year for the wine
