Lyrics
HARD LIQUOR AND EASY WOMEN
(Dale Allen/Clifford Jones)
Sittin' home tonight alone again
Don't know when I'm ever gonna win
Got a losin' streak a mile long
A cigarette and a TV set
Are the only friends I could get
Been so lonesome girl, since you've been gone
I need some hard liquor and easy women
Just to try and get you off my mind
I need some hard liquor and easy women
A little something to help me pass the time
Poppin' little pills every now and then
I got from my doctor when I told him
I thought I was about to lose my mind
But it seems no matter what I do
I always end up feelin' blue
No matter where I go...babe, you're not far behind
(Chorus)
Down at Dan's tavern at 4th and main
Drinkin' all night...feelin' no pain
Quarter in the jukebox, couple of beers on the bar
Been dancin' with everything in sight
You might say I'm doin' all right
I turn around and honey, there you are
(Chorus)
