Drinkin' Thing - Ronnie Dunn

Every day I tell myself it’s temporary

That it’s only 'cause she’s young that makes her want another man

Even though she makes me feel unnecessary

I’ve found a way to help me understand

I’ve got this drinkin' thing

To keep from thinkin' things

About where you’ve been, who you’ve been with and what you’ve done

And it’s a lonely thing

But it’s the only thing

To keep a foolish man in love hangin' on

If I wait up at home, I’ll only ask her questions

She’d probably the truth, so I don’t even ask

So, I sit here on this barstool, feeling helpless

And I wonder just how long a man can last

I’ve got this drinkin' thing

To keep from thinkin' things

About where you’ve been, who you’ve been with and what you’ve done

And it’s a lonely thing

But it’s the only thing

To keep a foolish man in love hangin' on

I’ve got this drinkin' thing

To keep from thinkin' things

About where you’ve been, who you’ve been with and what you’ve done
