  • I never felt this kind of pain before
    I never fought this kind of war before
    I never set foot inside this bar before tonight

    Bartender said, “Hey, how you doin’ man?
    Are you payin’ cash, do you wanna start a tab?”
    He laid down a napkin then he said, “What’ll you have tonight?
    We’re half price til nine.”

    Should I order beer or wine or rum or whiskey
    Vodka, tequila, yeah what’s gonna get me
    Peace of mind and a good night’s sleep
    Give me a double shot on the rocks
    Of the strongest help me out you got
    I really don’t know, so pour me what you think
    ‘Cause until tonight I didn’t drink

    She was my life, my love, my everything
    She was my heart, my soul, my reason to breathe
    Damn that cancer that came and took her away from me
    Left me in misery

    Should I order beer or wine or rum or whiskey
    Vodka, tequila, yeah what’s gonna get me
    Peace of mind and a good night’s sleep
    Give me a double shot on the rocks
    Of the strongest help me out you got
    I really don’t know, so pour me what you think
    ‘Cause until tonight, yeah before tonight,
    Until tonight I didn’t drink Writer/s: CRAIG MORGAN, KYLE JACOBS, PHILIP EUGENE O'DONNELL
