A goodbye letter In my old hand Is telling me she's had enough, hey she ain't coming back Picture on the wall Staring back at me It's burning a hole right through my soul Yeah it brings me to my knees I'm headed out the door To do all the wrong things right 'Cause there's only one thing That'll get me through this night All I need is hard whiskey A soft place to fall A jukebox full of George Jones songs Hey I won't miss her at all All I need is hard whiskey Just a little time Maybe one more drink And I'll be doing fine,-yeah I will Well I always said her leaving
Would never get to me So I turned to the whiskey To drown her memory Brown poison in a black label bottle She burns going down But it's better than the pain I feel wishing she was still around Well maybe someday I'll find a better way She'll come back to me But it won't be today All I need is hard whiskey A soft place to fall Someone to drive me home Or some old friends I can call All I need is hard whiskey Just a little time Maybe one more drink And I'll be doing fine,-oh yeah I'll be doing fine Whoa I'll be doing fine Yeah I'll be doing fine
