Lyrics

I don't always wake up in the mornin'

Pour myself a strong one

Aw, but when I get lonely I do

Your memory gets to burnin'

Lean back on the bourbon

Sure as hell can't keep leanin' on you

Looks like I'm learnin' the hard way again

It's all my fault

Yeah, I dropped the ball

You're gone and I'm gone three sheets to the wind

Thinkin' 'bout all

I've wasted on you

All of this time and all of this money

All of these sorrys I don't owe you honey

All of these miles on this Chevy and prayers in a pew

All them days I spent wasted on you

Wasted on you

Yeah, I swore this one'd be different

My heart wouldn't listen

To my head, and these boots on my feet

Looks like I'm learning the hard way again

That's why I've been

Wasted on you

All of this time and all of this money

All of these sorrys I don't owe you, honey

All of these miles on this Chevy and prayers in a pew

All them days I spent wasted on you

Wasted on you

Like this pile of your stuff that's packed up in the back

Right down to the flame of this match

Wasted on you, wasted on you

Wasted on you, wasted on you

Wasted on you

All of this time and all of this money

All of these sorrys I don't owe you, honey

All of these miles on this Chevy and prayers in a pew

All them days I spent wasted on you

Wasted on you, wasted on you

Wasted on you
