How do you spell relief?
I get D-R-U-N-K
Lately Dave, since my baby left meI do it almost every day
It′s the only thing that I've found
That′ll take the hurt away
Well, how do you spell relief, John?
I get D-R-U-N-K
Well, every night about sundown, I get a pain down deep inside
This old broken heart acts up
There's a hurtin' in my pride
But I′ve found a sure fire treatment
That′ll get me feelin' right
When your memory starts flarin′ up
I just head for the neon lights
How do you spell relief, David?
I get D-R-U-N-K
Lately, since my baby left
I do it almost every day
It's the only thing that I′ve found, John
That'll take the hurt away
Well, how do you spell relief?
I just get D-R-U-N-K
(John Hartford)
(Yeah)
I don′t need no doctor
Tell me what is wrong
I can fill my own prescriptions
And it lasts me all night long
It's the perfect medication
For an ailment such as mine
I forget about the tears I've cried
When the whiskey hits my mind
How do we spell relief?
We get D-R-U-N-K
Lately, since my baby left me
I do it almost every day
Well, I tell you, Johnny
It′s the only thing I′ve found
That'll take the pain away
How do we spell relief?
We get D-R-U-N-K
How do we spell relief?
We get D-R-U-N-K
How do we spell relief?
We get D-R-U-N-K
We′re havin' fun now, ain′t we?
