Select language to translate this lyric
Everyday I tell myself it's temporary
But it's only 'cause she's young
That makes her want another man
Even though she makes me feel unnecessary
I found a way to help me understand
I've got this drinkin' thing
To keep from thinkin' things
But where you've been
Who you've been with
And what you've done
And it's a lonely thing
But it's the only thing
That keeps a foolish man in love hangin' on
If I wait up at home all lonely
Ask her questions
She'd probably tell the truth
So I don't even ask
I just sit here on this barstool feelin' helpless
And I wonder just how long a man can last
I've got this drinkin' thing
To keep from thinkin' things
But where you've been
Who you've been with
And what you've done
And it's a lonely thing
But it's the only thing
That could keep a foolish man in love hangin' on
I've got this drinkin' thing
To keep from thinkin' things
But where you've been
Who you've been with
And what you've done
And it's a lonely thing
Oh, but it's the only thing
That could keep a foolish man in love hangin' on
