Some people say I drink because you left me
And they say that wine won’t drown your memory
But the reason that I drink is not to get you off my mind
I just heard this was a good year for the wine
It doesn’t bother me now that you’re gone and I haven’t thought about you in so long
And I’m not in this honky tonk cause you’re no longer mine
I just heard this was a good year for the wine
[ steel ]
It’s not the neon lights that drove me to this tavern
All the lonely sound you’re running to inside
It’s not my losing you that keeps me drinking all the time
I just heard this was a good year for the wine
It doesn’t bother me now…
I just heard this was a good year for the wine
