Lyrics

[Verse 1] It's funny how the whiskey eases the pain And softens her words rollin' 'round in my brain Instead of "I'm leavin'," she says "I'll be back in a little while" So, hey there, bartender, you better hang close 'Cause I'm lookin' for answers in that bottle you hold The truth is it's over, but oh what the hell? If I want to go on and lie to myself [Chorus] That's what's workin' right now and I'm gonna take it As far as I need to 'til my heart can make it Through one single night without thinkin' of her And wakin' up lonely, but until that occurs I'll just sit here and drink 'til I drown 'Cause that's what's workin' right now [Verse 2] I tried staying home after she left But there's too many memories for me to forget And every room is haunted By a ghost that once said that she loved me So I found a place where grown men can hide And not be ashamed if he breaks down and cries I know I should go home, but I know what's in store Hey, and who gives a damn if I just have one more? [Chorus] That's what's workin' right now and I'm gonna take it As far as I need to 'til my heart can make it Through one single night without thinkin' of her And wakin' up lonely, but until that occurs I'll just sit here and drink 'til I drown 'Cause that's what's workin' right now, oh [Chorus] That's what's workin' right now and I'm gonna take it As far as I need to 'til my heart can make it Through one single night without thinkin' of her And wakin' up lonely, but until that occurs I'll just sit here and drink 'til I drown I'll just sit here and drink 'til I drown I'll just sit here and drink 'til I drown 'Cause that's what's workin' right now
