"There's a tear in my beer
Cause I'm cryin' for you, dear
You are on my lonesome mind
Into these last nine beers
I have shed a million tears
You are on my lonely mind
I'm gonna keep drinkin' until I'm petrified
And then maybe these tears will leave my eyes
[Chorus]
There's a tear in my beer
Cause I'm cryin' for you, dear
You were on my lonely mind
Last night I walked the floor, and the night before
You were on my lonely mind
It seems my life is through and I'm so goddam blue
You were on my lonely mind
I'm gonna keep drinkin' till I can't move a toe
And then maybe my heart won't hurt me so
[Chorus]
Lord, I've tried and I've tried
But my tears I can't hide
You were on my lonely mind
All these blues that I've found
Have really got me down
You are on my lonely mind
I'm gonna keep on drinkin' till I can't even think
Cause in the last week I ain't slept a wink
[Chorus]
