One beer in my hand will always end up ten when I'm tryin to get you off my mind Well you just won't let me go Though your heart done told me so Why'd I have to drink you back again One is for the touch that came too easily Two is for the smile you turned my way Three and four make five But your memory's still alive Why'd I have to drink you back again One beer in my hand will always end up ten When I'm tryin to get you off my mind Well you just won't let me go Though your heart done told me so Why'd I have to drink you back again Six is for the night the news was broke to me Seven for your evil hearted ways Eight leads down to ten Like I said when this began I'll have a shot to send me on my way One beer in my hand will always end up ten When I'm trying to get you off my mind Well you just won't let me go Though your heart done told me so Why'd I have to drink you back again
