why am i drinkin ?

Merle Haggard

Hey why am I drinkin there s no really reason to quit
And why am I thinkin God know I m trying to forget
And why does that woman who stay on my mind night and day
And why am I drinkin why am I hurtin this way

Is love just another word for mem ry and is love just another word of pain
The question is that love we really answered
And if so why is love so much to blame
If love is what what we re really after then why am I runnin away
And why am I drinkin why am I hurtin this way
[ steel ]
If love is what what we re really after...
Yes honey why am I drinkin why am I hurtin this way
