Song information On this page you can find the lyrics of the song Why Henry Drinks, artist - Drive-By Truckers. Album song Alabama Ass Whuppin, in the genre АльтернативаWhy Henry Drinks |
| Them stories that you tell me are so hard to swallow |
| You said «Go to hell» but I know you’d just follow |
| The future’s closing in quicker than you think |
| And hanging with you I know why Henry drinks |
| Those obnoxious drunks downstairs are fighting and cussing |
| And twelve years of me and you don’t add up to nothing |
| You say what’s on your mind — tell it to your shrink |
| So he can know like me why Henry drinks |
| Just a few more hours till the sun comes back around |
| To tear each other down and drink another round |
| Lost it on the way now I’m hating what we found |
| Mendacity and grudge-fucks and pieces out of town |
| I drink half a case of beer 'fore I get home from work |
| Daddy needs his medicine to keep his hands off Mama’s throat |
| Baby, push a little harder cuz you got me on the brink |
| Of spilling more than guts about why Henry drinks |
| Telling you so much about why Henry drinks |
| Music by Drive-by Truckers (Cooley, Hood, Howell, Lane, and Neff) |
