Testo Drinking Again - Dinah Washington

Drinking Again

Ooh, it’s almost two
And I’m sitting here wishing that I could see you
That’s why I’m drinking again
And thinking of when you loved me
I’m having a few, and wishing that you were here
I’m making the rounds, and buying the rounds, for strangers
Yes, I’m being a fool, just hoping that you’ll appear
Sure I can borrow a smoke, maybe tell some joker a joke
But who’s gonna laugh, who’s gonna laugh at a broken heart
That’s why its better, drinking again
And thinking of when you left
Me
Can’t you see I’m trying to make it on home
And ain’t got nothing but a memory
Maybe I can borrow a smoke, maybe tell some joker a joke
But, who’s got the nerve, the nerve to laugh at my broken heart
That’s why it’s better drinking again
And thinking of when you left
Me
