about

An anti-tribute to the infamous Hank Williams.

lyrics

You never missed me when you were drinkin’ whiskey,
So take this money and run on down to the liquor store, oh lord.
You never missed me when you were drinkin’ whiskey,
So take this money and don’t come botherin’ me no more.

Well here you come a knockin’ on my front door yet again,
Hollarin that you’ve changed and beggin’ me to let you in.
You say you’ve gone to meetings and that you have gone through hell.
But you crawled out of the bottle, and back into love you fell.

But you never missed me when you were drinkin’ whiskey,
So take this money and run on down to the liquor store, oh lord.
You never missed me when you were drinkin’ whiskey,
So take this money and don’t come botherin’ me no more.

I filled my days with spoilin’ you while you filled up your glass,
I waited for your love and for your hangovers to pass,
Honey, I sat home alone when you’d go have your fun.
And now you come here a tellin’ me that you’re the lonely one.

But you never missed me when you were drinkin’ whiskey,
So take this money and run on down to the liquor store, oh lord.
You never missed me when you were drinkin’ whiskey,
So take this money and don’t come botherin’ me no more.
