[Verse] Walked into the bar at half past nine, Lookin' for a place to lose some time, Sat myself down on a wooden stool, Feelin' mighty low and playin' the fool. [Verse 2] Bartender's eyes, they knew my kind, Set the scene for sorrow tales and wine, Asked me what put that pain in my eyes, Said, "Pour me a drink, and I'll tell no lies." [Chorus] Pull another bottle down, Drown these troubles, let 'em drown, Every pour takes away a tear, Pour a little more, the pain gets clear. [Verse 3] Told him 'bout the girl who broke my heart, How she walked away and tore me apart, Her shadow lingers in every glass, The past comes back with every splash. [Verse 4] He said he's heard it all, but kept on pourin', Tales of love lost in the early mornin', Every drop was a fleeting friend, Each ounce a chance to mend. [Chorus] Pull another bottle down, Drown these troubles, let 'em drown, Every pour takes away a tear, Pour a little more, the pain gets clear.
