D-R-U-N-K

How do you spell relief?

I get D-R-U-N-K

Lately Dave, since my baby left me

I do it almost every day

It's the only thing that I've found

That'll take the hurt away

Well, how do you spell relief, John?

I get D-R-U-N-K

Well, every night about sundown, I get a pain down deep inside

This old broken heart acts up

There's a hurtin' in my pride

But I've found a sure fire treatment

That'll get me feelin' right

When your memory starts flarin' up

I just head for the neon lights

How do you spell relief, David?

I get D-R-U-N-K

Lately, since my baby left

I do it almost every day

It's the only thing that I've found, John

That'll take the hurt away

Well, how do you spell relief?

I just get D-R-U-N-K

(John Hartford)

(Yeah)

I don't need no doctor

Tell me what is wrong

I can fill my own prescriptions

And it lasts me all night long

It's the perfect medication

For an ailment such as mine

I forget about the tears I've cried

When the whiskey hits my mind

How do we spell relief?

We get D-R-U-N-K

Lately, since my baby left me

I do it almost every day

Well, I tell you, Johnny

It's the only thing I've found

That'll take the pain away

How do we spell relief?

We get D-R-U-N-K

How do we spell relief?

We get D-R-U-N-K

How do we spell relief?

We get D-R-U-N-K

We're havin' fun now, ain't we?
