George Jones - Bone Dry Lyrics
Baby wants me to go cold turkey, bone dryNo Jack Daniels, no Jim Beam whiskey, bone dryNo stoppin' after work for a beer with the guysNothin' in the mornin' to open my eyesIt's hard comin' down from a permanent high, bone dryI got my doubts if I can make it, a bone dryIt's a crazy world I don't know if I can take it, a bone dryIt's only been an hour, I'm startin' to shakeSixty more minutes and I know I'll breakHow much more of this hell can I take? Bone dryWell, bone dry, boy, am I dry as a bone?How'd I ever say I'd ever leave it alone?Break down, shake down layin' in bedCovers are soaked and I'm damn near dead and I'm bone dryBaby took a look at her cold turkey, bone dryI tried to smile but my mouth wasn't working I was bone dryThis is one promise that I'm gonna keepUnless I get lucky and die in my sleepOne way or the other I'm gonna be bone dryWell, bone dry, boy, am I dry as a bone?How'd I ever say I'd ever leave it alone?Break down, shake down layin' in bedCovers are soaked and I'm damn near deadBone dry, bone dry, bone dry, bone dry
