Cold Beer
(Joe L. Murgo)

Ever since she left me
I found out I ain't so tough
She tore my heart up in pieces
And she said, "Adios, I've had enough"

So I stayed drunk for nearly a month
But nothin' changed when I sobered up

Yeah, I tried drinkin' bottles and cans
Foreign and domestic brands
A draft and a shot of Jack
But no amount can bring her back
Yeah, I can pound down as many as I like
But, cold beer don't keep me warm at night
Oh no, don't keep me warm at night

Hangin' round this empty house
Is drivin' me right out of my skin
I keep askin', "What went wrong?"
Over and over again
All I do when I get home
Is flip channels all night
And drink all alone

Yeah, I tried drinkin' bottles and cans
Foreign and domestic brands
A draft and a shot of Jack
But no amount can bring her back
Yeah, I can pound down as many as I like
But, cold beer won't keep me warm at night
Oh no, won't keep me warm at night

People think I'm a big tough guy
But the truth is I get pretty lonesome at night
A good lovin' woman is what I need
'Cause there ain't nothin' like the real thing

Yeah, I tried drinkin' bottles and cans
Foreign and domestic brands
A draft and a shot of Jack
But no amount can bring her back
Yeah, I can pound down as many as I like
But, cold beer won't keep me warm at night
Oh no, keep me warm at night
On no, won't keep me warm at night, no way
Won't keep me warm at night
Cold beer won't keep me warm at night
