Corey Smith Dry
One, two, three
I didn't stay out late last night
So nothing's hanging over me today
And I'm ashamed to say but it's been a long, long time
Since I woke up in this good a shape
I've got no hammer against my head
And my recollection's fine
I've got no need for rehydration
'Cause I didn't go drinkin' myself dry
Drinkin' myself dry
Burnin' my belly full of holes
The more liquor I pour in the well
The more it drains everything else
Till liquor's all I'm a-thirsty for
I wind up sleepin' in my boots
Wakin' up on the floor
Tellin' myself that it's alright
Just had a little too much last night
I've been drinkin' myself dry
Some days I wake up fightin' mad
I feel like whoopin' my own tail
I stare in the mirror, I wanna put my fist right through
'Cause I can't stand lookin' at myself
But this mornin' I'm feelin' quite well
Here with my children and my wife
I've got everything a man could hope for
Why I gotta go drinkin' myself dry?
Drinkin' myself dry
Burnin' my heart full of holes
The more liquor I pour in the well
The more it drains everything else
Till liquor's all I'm a-thirsty for
She's been tellin' me for years
You can't live like this for long
But I couldn't see that she was right
'Cause I had dust all in my eyes
I was drinkin' myself dry
But I think I've finally seen the light
I wiped the dust out of myself
I think I've drank myself dry
