Hank Williams
There’s A Tear In My Beer
[Verse 1]
There's a tear in my beer
'Cause I'm crying for you, dear
You are on my lonely mind
Into these last nine beers
I have shed a million tears
You are on my lonely mind
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm gonna keep drinkin' until I'm petrified
And then maybe these tears will leave my eyes
[Chorus]
There's a tear in my beer
'Cause I'm crying for you, dear
You were on my lonely mind
[Verse 2]
Last night I walked the floor
And the night before
You were on my lonely mind
It seems my life is through
And I'm so doggone blue
You are on my lonely mind
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm gonna keep drinkin' 'til I can't move a toe
And then maybe my heart won't hurt me so
[Chorus]
There's a tear in my beer
'Cause I'm crying for you, dear
You were on my lonely mind
[Verse 3]
Lord, I've tried and I've tried
But my tears, I can't hide
You are on my lonely mind
All these blues that I've found
Have really got me down
You are on my lonely mind
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm gonna keep drinkin' 'til I can't even think
'Cause in the last week, I ain't slept a wink
[Chorus]
There's a tear in my beer
'Cause I'm crying for you, dear
You were on my lonely mind
