He don't go to bed 'til morning And he sleeps the day away His boss kept tryin' to warn him But he got fired the other day And he's been puttin' down some whiskey And cryin' all night long He's goin' down quickly Now that she's gone Now that she's No longer here Oh it's like he's no longer there And he's drownin' in His own tears Oh and he don't even care He loved everything about her A million times his friends all heard How he couldn't live without her I guess he's gonna live up to his word He's in a river of her memories And the currents just too strong He's goin' down quickly Now that she's gone He's 31 but he looks 60 As he kneels down by her stone He's goin' down quickly Now that she's gone And if he don't lay off that whiskey Heaven knows it won't be long He's goin' down quickly Now that she's gone
