Hank Thompson - Teach 'em How to Swim lyrics

Babe you got me up a tree a way out on a limb You told me lies you let me on then turned me down for him You took my heart tore it all apart and then threw it away And now that it's all over babe here's all I can say Oh take my gla** fill it up fill it to the brim If I can't drown my troubles babe I'll teach 'em how to swim If I can't teach 'em how to swim I'll teach 'em how to float So please just pa** one more gla** to please my dusty throat Grandpa's swallowed his first drink when he was only eight The doctor warned him then and there to stop before it was too late But grandpa was a real strong man he wouldn't heed the plea Now he's done drink hisself to d**h he died at ninety-three So since my grandpa lived so long I want to be like him If I can't drown my troubles babe I'll teach 'em how to swim So here I sit in this old bar my future's looking dim If I can't drown my troubles babe I'll teach 'em how to swim Oh take my gla** fill it up...
