(One More Drink)
Started with a teardrop
Down his cheek
He couldn't take it
Anymore
Life's dealt hand
Tearing him to the core
Instead of fixing his problems
He would drown his sorrows away
One drink at a time
Until the numbness stayed
A person can only get lucky
Certain number of times
On that night, just one more drink
Consumed his mind
It only took one more drink
To take another family's life away
For one more drink
Prison the rest of his life
He will have to pay
