She said she's gonna quit me
If I didn't quit the booze
So I just started drinkin' more
To see if she would really chooseAnd I have to hand it to that girl
She meant every breath
And I'm glad she did 'cause I was about
To drink myself to deathBecause my drinkin' problem left today
She packed up all her things and walked away
Well, it looks like off the bottle now is where I'm gonna stay
Because my drinkin' problem left todayWell, she said I had problems
Boy, was she ever right?
To keep from goin' home to her
I'd stay out, drunk, all nightAnd I believe that woman left me
In the nick of time
If she'd stayed much longer
I'd have drinked up my last dimeBecause my drinkin' problem left today
She packed up all her things and walked away
And it looks like off the bottle now is where I'm gonna stay
Because my drinkin' problem left todayYeah, it looks like off the bottle now is where I'm gonna stay
Because my drinkin' problem left today
