Another Double

Another double on the rocks since you've been gone

It's how I spend my nights here, all alone

And a bar-room ain't no place to heal a heartache, but it's my home

Another double on the rocks since you've been gone

Easy women and hard whiskey bide my time

I drink myself away from you and out of my mind

As that old lonesome song plays on the jukebox, an empty glass

If she's running 'round acting single, I need a double fast

So, bartender pour me a drink before I start to think

That there's a chance that she might be coming home

I said, "Fill her up to the top, Lord, don't spare me a drop"

Another double on the rocks since she's been gone

Every night when closing time comes around

I find myself picking myself up off the ground

I might find myself in the arms of a honky-tonk angel before morning light

Another double on the rocks to ease my mind

So, bartender pour me a drink before I start to think

That there's a chance that she might be coming home

I said, "Fill her up to the top, Lord, don't spare me a drop"

Another double on the rocks since she's been gone

Another double on the rocks since you've been gone
