There's a Tear in My Beer Lyrics

There's a tear in my beer
'Cause I'm cryin' for you, dear
You are on my lonely mind
Into these last nine beers
I have shed a million tears
You are on my lonely mind

I'm gonna keep drinkin'
Until I'm petrified
And then maybe, these tears will leave my eyes
There's a tear in my beer
'Cause I'm cryin' for you, dear
You are on my lonely mind

Last night I walked the floor
And the night before
You were on my lonely mind
It seems my life is through
And I'm so dog gone blue
You are on my lonely mind

I'm gonna keep drinkin'
'Til I can't move a toe
And then maybe, my heart won't hurt me so
There's a tear in my beer
'Cause I'm crying for you, dear
You are on my lonely mind

Lord, I've tried and I've tried
But my tears, I can't hide
You are on my lonely mind
All these blues that I've found
Have really got me down
You are on my lonely mind

I'm gonna keep drinkin'
'Til I can't even think
'Cause in the last week, I ain't slept a wink
There's a tear in my beer
'Cause I'm crying for you, dear
You are on my lonely mind

Cover art for There's a Tear in My Beer lyrics by Hank Williams Jr.

I love this version with his daddy's vocal tracks in it. Had he lived, they could have made some damn nice duets. It's a great song to sing when your baby leaves you and you need to take your frustration out somehow.
