slim dusty - drowning my blues lyrics
i’m sittin’ on a bar stool in the corner nook
and what i’m doing isn’t very great,
so bottle please stand by me till the morning,
or i’m out to drown my blues tonight.
dime lights and cigarette smoke all around me,
some joke i’m playin’ on myself tonight,
my tears are fallin’ in the gl-ss i’m holdin’
i’m out to drown my blues tonight.
they say the clouds still have a silver lining
i’ve heard that song before,
sometimes a man gets sick and tired of tryin’,
and i feel that i can’t fight anymore.
i’m cryin’ as i tryin’ to forget her,
and shake her from my mind, and from my sight,
be sick and sad and sober in the morning,
but i’m out to drown my blues tonight.
[instrumental]
oh i wonder who i think that i am foolin,
who’s right or wrong i wouldn’t like to say,
i know i’ll have to straighten in the morning,
and face up to the full hard light of day.
they say the clouds still have a silver lining
i’ve heard that song before,
sometimes a man gets sick and tired of tryin’,
and i feel that i can’t fight anymore.
i’m cryin’ as i tryin’ to forget her,
and shake her from my mind, and from my sight,
be sick and sad and sober in the morning,
but i’m out to drown my blues tonight.
i’m out to drown my blues tonight.
