Cold One Comin' On Lyrics

Weatherman says, "It might hit ninety-five."
September's gonna' feel more like July
He's callin' for a night that's warm and mild
I think he missed it by a mile
He just don't know that you're gone
I feel a cold one comin' on

Drivin' home gets longer every day
I found new things to do along the way
A bar room ain't no place to run and hide
From the memories of a love that said goodbye
I'm sick and tired of right or wrong
I feel a cold one comin' on

Makes you wanta' start thinkin' about drinkin'
If I don't find a way to ease my mind
Leave all this behind
I'm goinna' go crazy. without you baby
A bar room or that bed room back at home
I feel a cold one comin' on

Makes you wanta' start thinkin' about drinkin'
If I don't find a way to ease my mind
Leave all this behind
I'm goinna' go crazy. without you baby
A bar room or that bed room back at home
I feel a cold one comin' on

A bar room or that bedroom back at home
I feel a cold one comin' on

Well, the music video for this song puts all pieces together. For those who haven't seen it, it shows how a wife looses her husband who is ill. How her life is shattered, how everything around her reminds her of her now late husband, how her whole world comes tumbling down around her and how she thinks that she can't go on anymore and have to take her own life. But, brighter days are ahead and she finds new things to live for. Well, we can asume anyway.

I don't know if this is the EXACT story MG wanted to convey, but the symbolic meaning is pretty laid out together with the vid.

The video is great, but focusing on the video too much has caused interpreters to fail to comment on genius of the pun mentioned in the title. What I am referring to is the "cold one" mentioned in the title. These two words refer to both alcohol and the coldness of death. Since alcoholism and death are two of the classic themes of bluesy country songs, this song succeeds wonderfully well as country blues do to this two word pun.
