if i'm gonna sink

well here i sit in this honky tonk feeling mighty low

hating to see that old clock on the wall saying its time to go

so bring another drink bartender

troubles boy i got em

and if i'm gonna sink

i might as well go to the bottom

'cause i got the meanest old woman you ever did seen

and she don't go me staying out all night

and when i come home in the morning banging on the screen

you can bet your bottom dollar

there's gonna be a whale of a fight

i guess she might be pretty good

sometimes sweet and kind

but she can't see past her nose when it comes to this jug of mine

but when i get the heebie jeebies

this jug is the only way to stop them

so if i'm gonna sink

i might as well go to the bottom

i might as well go to the bottom

yeah if i'm gonna sink

i might as well go to the bottom
