Put Down the Drink - EMPHATIC

Baby, put down the drink

And baby, put down the bottle

You’re startin' to sink

And when you’re down on your knees, it’s so hard to swallow

Your heart is beatin' like a loaded gun

What’s done is done and you’re spinnin' in circles

Where’s the girl that I used to know?

Why did you let her go?

You know I loved her so

It’s never any more than one for me

But always two or three for you

Baby, put down the drink

Baby, put down the bottle

You’re startin' to sink

And when you’re down on your knees, it’s so hard to swallow

I don’t want to see it go this way

Feelin' like tomorrow is just a yesterday

I hate the way it is and to tell you the truth

It’s killin' me and it’s killin' you

I can’t stand all the ups and downs

The back and forths and the 'round and 'rounds

The in and outs of the slammin' doors

It’s tearin' me apart, I can’t take no more

It’s never any more than one for me

But always two or three for you

Baby, put down the drink

Baby, put down the bottle

You’re startin' to sink

And when you’re down on your knees, yeah, it’s so hard to swallow

I want us back like we were before

Not like the broken glass lyin' on the floor

Baby, put down the drink

(Put down the drink)

Baby, put down the bottle

(Put down the bottle)

It feels like it’s all slippin' away

I wish I had you like it has you

It feels like it’s all slippin' away

I wish I had you

Baby, put down the drink

Baby, put down the bottle

You’re startin' to sink

And you get high when you’re down, but I’m watchin' you fall

So baby, put down the drink

Baby, put down the bottle

You’re startin' to sink

And when you’re down on your knees, yeah, it’s so hard to swallow

I want us back like we were before

Not like the broken glass lyin' on the floor

Baby, put down the drink

Put down the bottle

(When you’re down on your knees, it’s so hard to swallow)

Put down the drink

Put down the bottle

Your heart is beatin' like a loaded gun

What’s done is done

And you’re spinning in circles
