Close up the bar you know the gates of the brewery Shes out there every night And she sure aint drinkin tea I love that woman, she's the best one that I had But she's got this habit now and it sure is gettin bad That whiskey drinkin woman Is makin a poor man out of me Shes got bottles in the kitchen Even got them in my bed Most times I see her now Shes three parts out of her head Don't know where I went wrong I sure try to treat her right But it sure upsets me Seein her juiced up every night. That whiskey drinkin woman Is makin a poor man out of me Got to solve this problem Wont you help me find the key The way that things are going Ill have to buy the distillery She just stands there smilin With a whiskey in each hand Got to think of something Don't know how much I can stand That whiskey drinkin woman Is makin a poor man out of me Got to get myself together, start workin something out Maybe if I tried some booze, I'd know what it's about I love that woman, she's the best one that I had But she's got this problem now And it sure is gettin bad. That whiskey drinkin woman Is makin a poor man out of me
