And I don’t care anymore about livin’
So either way that I go, it’s ’cause of you
Or it can come from this bottle
So why prolong the agony
Without you, just the grave can ease the pain
’Cause since you left, it’s just a matter of time
Hey, bartender, I think I’ll hit the throttle
I don’t know, oh Lord, it might be true
I don’t care that my friends have all left me
If I stop I’ll just die from your leavin’
Or it can come from this bottle
If I stop, I’ll just die from your leavin’
Death can come from this broken heart
Yeah, they say this drinkin’ will kill me
’Cause they swear that I have gone insane
I don’t care how the doctor might warn me
So either way that I go, it’s ’cause of you
Hey, bartender, I think I’ll hit the throttle
Death can come from this broken heart
Or it can come from this bottle
So why prolong the agony
I don’t care how the preacher might preach me
About the evils of being drunk with wine
So why prolong the agony
Death can come from this broken heart
Hey, bartender, I think I’ll hit the throttle
Yeah, either way that I go, it’s ’cause of you
