I've got a bad liver, and a broken heart



"Well I got a bad liver and broken heart, yeah,
I drunk me a river since you
tore me apart
And I don't have a drinking problem, 'cept when I can't get a
drink
And I wish you'd a-known her, we were quite a pair,
She was
sharp as a razor and soft as a prayer

So welcome to the continuing saga, she was
my better half, and I was just a dog
And so here am I slumped, I've been
chipped and I've been chumped on my stool
So buy this fool some spirits and
libations, it's these railroad station bars

And all these conductors and
porters, and I'm all out of quarters
And this epitaph is the aftermath, yeah
I choose my path, hey, come on, Kath,
He's a lawyer, he ain't the one for ya

No, the moon ain't romantic, it's intimidating as hell,
And some guy's
trying to sell me a watch
And so I'll meet you at the bottom of a bottle of
bargain Scotch
I got me a bottle and a dream, it's so maudlin it
seems,
You can name your poison, go on ahead and make some noise
I ain't
sentimental, this ain't a purchase, it's a rental, and it's purgatory,
And
hey, what's your story, well I don't even care
Cause I got my own
double-cross to bear

And I'll see your Red Label, and I'll raise you
one more,
And you can pour me a cab, I just can't drink no more,
Cause it
don't douse the flames that are started by dames,
It ain't like
asbestos
It don't do nothing but rest us assured,
And substantiate the
rumors that you've heard"...
