I wake up in the morning full of dread

Tryin' to remember what I'd said

I say that I won't call you

And I mean it every time

Until I cross that bourbon borderline



I wish that I could tell you why I call

Sometimes it's just hard for me, that's all

I know that it's over and it's just a waste of time

Until I cross that bourbon borderline



Memories of you surround me

And I'm afraid the tears might drown me

Oh, I think I'm doing fine

Until I cross that bourbon borderline



It's good that I just do this now and then

You know I'm realy not a drinking man

But I coan't bear to talk about us any other time

Until I cross that bourbon borderline



Memories of you surround me

And I'm afraid the tears might drown me

Oh, I think I'm doing fine

Until I cross that bourbon borderline



Oh, I think I'm doing fine

Until I cross that bourbon borderline
