Lyrics
I might be insane or does that take time?
I guess that I've gone right out of my mind
Sooner or later it's bound to sink in
I should be drinkin' instead of thinkin'
I've thought about you since the day you left
You would have to say I've got one regret
Life used to be fair but it's been stinkin'
I should be drinkin' instead of thinkin'
I should be drinkin' instead of thinkin'
There's time on my hands and nothing to do
I'm facing the fact you and I are through
I should be drinkin instead of thinkin'
One minute you're here and then you are gone
Here's that old heartache that keeps hangin' on
There goes your shadow and you were winkin'
I should be drinkin' instead of thinkin'
You've heard my story and I'll stick to it
Learn from my mistake so you don't do it
My girl slipped away while I was blinkin'
I should be drinkin' instead of thinkin'
I should be drinkin' instead of thinkin'
There's time on my hands and nothing to do
I'm facing the fact you and I are through
I should be drinkin instead of thinkin'
