(d. yoakam)
Chorus:
It wont hurt when I fall down from this bar stool
And it wont hurt when I stumble in the street
It wont hurt cause this whiskey eases misery
But even whiskey cannot ease your hurting me
Today I had another bout with sorrow
You know this time I almost won
If this bottle would just hold out til tomorrow
I know that Id have sorrow on the run
Chorus:
It wont hurt when I fall down from this bar stool
And it wont hurt when I stumble in the street
It wont hurt cause this whiskey eases misery
But even whiskey cannot ease your hurting me
Your memory comes back up with each sunrise
I reach out for the bottle and find its gone
Yeah, lord, somewhere every night the whiskey leave me
To face this cold, cold world on my own
Chorus:
It wont hurt when I fall down from this bar stool
And it wont hurt when I stumble in the street
It wont hurt cause this whiskey eases misery
But even whiskey cannot ease your hurting me
