The doctor says I'm livin'
On precious borrowed time
With all the time I'm givin'
To liquor, beer and wine

The x-rays of my liver
Look like molded old swiss cheese
My heart pumps blood and alcohol
Through hardened arteries

Everybody knows me
Down at the local bar
I drink until I can't see
And I wonder where you are

I guess I let my health go
Since you quit bein' mine
But there's nothing to replace you
'Cept liquor, beer and wine

Liquor beer and wine
Is a flashing sign I see
Every single morning I get up
It's a buzzing down at me

I look up to the heavens for
A ray of hope to shine
And there it is in neon
Liquor, beer and wine

Ever since you left me
I've lived out of my car
Parked between the liquor store
And Uncle Bubba's bar

Booze helps ease the heartache
But you're constantly in mind
As constant as that buzzing noise
Of Uncle Bubba's sign

Liquor, beer and wine
Is a flashing sign I see
Every darn morning I get up
It's a buzzing down at me

I look up to the heavens for
A ray of hope to shine
And there it is in neon
Liquor, beer and wine
