SPENDIN' MY TIME
Words & Music by Mickey McBride
Verse 1
I SPEND MY TIME DRINKIN',
JUST TO KEEP FROM THINKIN',
THINKIN' 'BOUT THE GOOD OL' TIMES WE HAD,
I DON'T WANNA THINK OF YOU...
'CAUSE IT HURTS ME WHEN I DO,
I'M REMINDED OF THE GOOD TIMES THAT WENT BAD,
Verse 2
I SPEND MY TIME BOOZIN',
DON'T THINK OF WHAT I'M LOSIN',
LOSIN' YOU IS MORE THAN I CAN TAKE,
AN' I KNOW I'VE BEEN A FOOL,
AS I SIT ON MY BAR STOOL,
ALL I THINK ABOUT IS..... STAYIN' AWAKE,
Bridge
A JUKE BOX PLAYIN' SONGS OF LOVE...
THAT LINGER ON MY MIND,
CAN DRIVE ME TO ANOTHER DRINK,
I'LL DRINK 'TIL I GO BLIND.........,
Verse 3
I'LL SPEND MY TIME ACHIN',
JUST TO KEEP FROM BREAKIN',
BREAKIN' YOUR HEART OUGHT TO BE A CRIME,
I WILL ORDER ONE MORE DRINK...
SO MY MIND WON'T HAVE TO THINK...
ABOUT ALL THE TIME I'VE SPENT..... SPENDIN' MY TIME.
