I've never been the kind to just turn and run Never lost a battle with a loaded gun Never been confused about who I am Or what I think it takes for me to be a man But lately it's been hell just trying to get by Livin' like I'm livin' on a borrowed dime Watchin' my friends as they're all having fun Whiskey won't you help me make it through this one 'Cause I don't mind I'll sit here and keep on grinnin', drowned my head and keep on livin' I don't mind Guess I'll drink another bottle and drown another sorrow I don't mind I can't wait another minute, won't you help me to forget it again Well tonight's been slower than it's ever been Staring at the clock at closing time again The bartender tells me it's time to go Got a bottle of the venom waiting back at home Come tomorrow I'll probably buy some more Black Label Even Williams from the liquor store Back to the bar until my drinkins done Whiskey won't you help me make it through this one 'Cause I don't mind I'll sit here and keep on grinnin', drowned my head and keep on livin' I don't mind Guess I'll drink another bottle and drown another sorrow I don't mind I can't wait another minute, won't you help me to forget it again 'Cause I don't mind I'll sit here and keep on grinnin', drowned my head and keep on livin' I don't mind Guess I'll drink another bottle and drown another sorrow I don't mind I can't wait another minute, won't you help me to forget it again
