Why Am I Drinkin' Lyrics

(Merle Haggard)

Hey, why am I drinkin'
Rthere's no real reason to quit
And why am I thinkin'
God know I'm trying to forget.

And why does that woman
Who stay on my mind night and day
And why am I drinkin'
Why am I hurtin' this way?

Is love just another word for mem'ry
And is love just another word of pain
The question is that love we really answered
And if so why is love so much to blame?Merle Haggard - Why Am I Drinkin' - http://motolyrics.com/merle-haggard/why-am-i-drinkin-lyrics.html

If love is what we're really after
Then why am I runnin' away
And why am I drinkin'
Why am I hurtin' this way?

If love is what what we're really after
Then why am I runnin' away
And why am I drinkin'
Why am I hurtin' this way?

Yes honey. why am I drinkin'
Why am I hurtin' this way?...
