Bill Anderson Cocktails
Cocktails tore up my family
Cocktails tore down my home
One to wake me up every morning one with a buddy at noon
One for the road every evening till I found out pretty soon
It took two to wake me up every morning two with my buddy at noon
Two for the road every evening
Till I guess what happened pretty soon
Cocktails tore up my family
Cocktails tore down my home
I cheated and I lied swallowed my pride (and then)
Washed it down with cocktails
I had a house on a hillside the car I was drivin' was new
I had money in my pockets look what liquor led me to
I started running round with a woman
Turned my back on my wife and my kids
Wonder how mom was gonna tell 'em
The awful thing that daddy did
Cocktails tore up my family
Cocktails tore down my home
I cheated and I lied swallowed my pride (and then)
Washed it down with cocktails
