Tom T. Hall - I Only Think About You When I'm Drunk Lyrics

(Tom T. Hall)

Well, I don't think about you when I'm bowlin'
I don't think about you when I'm playin' golf
I don't think about you when I go out huntin'
And when I'm tryin' to catch it bad you don't cross my mind at all.

I don't think about when I'm hungry
I don't think about you when my donots dump
I don't think about you when I'm lonely
Oh, I only think about you when I'm drunk.

When I get out of this jail
I'm gonna go straight
I'd go straight back to that bar
And tell my frinds they'd better not wait.

'Cause I ain't gonna be drinking anymore
Hey, I know I've said that once or twice before
Well, I'm tired of having two drinks and seeing my ship of happiness sunk
And I only think about you, you when I'm drunk.

--- Instrumental ---

Well, I don't think about you when I'm cookin'
I don't think about you when I'm makin' bed
And I don't think about you when I'm muffin'
And when I think to making love, well, you might as well be dead.

I don't think about you when I'm readin'
I don't think about you when I see your junk
I don't think about you on your birthday
I only think about you when I'm drunk.

So when I get out of this jail
I'm gonna go straight
I'd go straight back to that bar
And tell my frinds they'd better not wait.

'Cause I ain't gonna be drinking anymore
Hey, I know I've said that once or twice before
Well, I'm tired of having two drinks and seeing my ship of happiness sunk
And I only think about you, you when I'm drunk...
