Rod Stewart - Drinking Again (aka I've Been Drinking) lyrics

(johnny mercer, doris tauber) Jeff beck group [produced my mickie most, b side of columbia db 8359, 1968] I'm drinkin' again Thinkin' of when You left me That happened once so long ago, hmm I've been havin' a few And wishin' that you Were right here by my side Well i'm makin' the rounds And settin' them up A total stranger to myself I'm just makin' a fool of myself I'm just hopin' that you'll come right back once, someday, But i know, i know, i know That there's no second time around Hmm. now, listen! I know, i know, i know. Sure i know i can borrow a smoke Or sit here all night long and tell a joke But after all is said and done Who's gonna laugh, Who's gonna laugh at a broken, a broken heart? I've been drinkin' again And thinkin' of when Of when you left me And that weren't so long ago, Hmm I've been havin' a few You know that you know, And wishin' that you Were here right by my side Hmm Now listen one time! I've been drinkin' again I've been drinkin' again Sometimes i can't help myself. Hmm
