Lyrics
I laid down for a snooze - how did I lose Seven days? No way, no how Got into the booze, and that's my excuse For passing out You've heard of drinking your baby goodbye Being so lonesome that you could cry She said 'The closet's for clothes.' Yeah, she took most of those All she left was some pills and some rye You see, my 'life partner', Faye, just walked away From 3 years, 2 cars and 1 ring No, not with a guy, but some chick with one eye A portly thing You've heard of drinking your baby goodbye Being so lonesome that you could cry No blood left to give My heart is a sieve And there's nothing left to drip dry I went at it real hard with complete disregard For my mind, my gut and my bones I fell, hit my head, 'cause that pill bottle read: 'Testosterone' You've heard of drinking your baby goodbye Being so lonesome that you could cry From this hospital room, it's clear, I'm doomed And that's what she expects for this guy You've heard of drinking your baby goodbye Being so lonesome that you could cry Now, in the next gurney bed my Faye is a Fred With 5 o'clock shadow at 9 Now, in the next gurney bed my Faye is a Fred With 5 o'clock shadow at 9
