power of positive drinkin'

only come here once a day at hurtin' time

payday

charley knows i'm good for every dime

and i ease up on the barstool where i ease my pain

i'm just strong enough to face that lonely night again

oh the power

the powers of drinkin'

and it's foolin' all of my native thinkin'

and it hurts so good i never notice the sinkin'

thanks a lot to positive drinkin'

well

charley always let me take a bottle home

after all

a man he can't fake it when he's all alone

and when the whiskey's talkin' i can't hear your memory

'cause a little drinkin' drowns out a lot of you and me

oh the power

the powers of drinkin'

and it's foolin' all of my native thinkin'

and it hurts so good i never notice the sinkin'

thanks a lot to positive drinkin'

thanks a lot to positive drinkin'.
