Evening Is The Only Time

 

 

I walk into a bar room and I sit and drink my fill

Another double whiskey dims the pain I feel within

I lost my job and lost my pride

I lost my girl I could have died

She threw me out and left me flat

I couldn't blame her much for that.

 

And the evening is the only time

My mind can be set free

With a bottle and a fading memory.

 

I wake up in the morning and my head is cracked with pain

I can't remember where I was or what or who to blame

I know I'm goin' nowhere fast

I keep on runnin' from the past

The whiskey keeps me going on

I guess that it won't be for long.

 

And the evening is the only time

My mind can be set free

With a bottle and a fading memory.

 

I know I'm going nowhere fast

I keep on running from the past

The whiskey keeps me going on

I guess that it won't be for long.

 

And the evening is the only time

My mind can be set free

With a bottle and a fading memory.

 

 

 

A common theme in country music.
