[Chorus 1: Hank Williams Jr] There's a tear in my beer Cause I'm crying for you, dear You are on my lonely mind [Verse 1: Hank Williams Jr] Into these last nine beers I have shed a million tears You are on my lonely mind I'm going to keep drinking until I'm petrified And then maybe these tears will leave my eyes [Chorus 1: Hank Williams Jr] [Verse 2: Hank Williams] Last night I walked the floor And the night before [Chorus 2: Both] You are on my lonely mind [Verse 3: Hank Williams] It seems my life is through And I'm so doggone blue [Chorus 1: Both]
[Verse 4: Hank Williams] I'm going to keep drinking til I can't move a toe And then maybe my heart won't hurt me so [Chorus 1: Both] There's a tear in my beer Cause I'm crying for you dear You are on my lonely mind [Verse 4: Hank Williams] Lord, I've tried and I've tried But my tears I can't hide [Chorus 2: Both] [Verse 5: Hank Williams] All these blues that I've found Have really got me down [Chorus 2: Both] [Verse 6: Both] I'm going to keep drinking til I can't even think Cause in the last week I ain't slept a wink [Chorus 1: Both]
