There's a tear in my beer 'cause I'm cryin' for you, dear

You are on my lonely mind

Into these last nine beers, I have shed a million tears

You are on my lonely mind

I'm gonna keep drinkin' until I'm petrified

And then maybe these tears will leave my eyes

There's a tear in my beer 'cause I'm crying' for you dear

You are on my lonely mind

Last night I walked the floor and the night before

You are on my lonely mind

It seems my life is through and I'm so doggone blue

You are on my lonely mind

I'm gonna keep drinkin' till I can't move a toe

And then maybe my heart won't hurt me so

There's a tear in my beer 'cause I'm cryin' for you dear

You are on my lonely mind

Lord, I've tried and I've tried but my tears I can't hide

You are on my lonely mind

All these blues that I've found have really got me down

You are on my lonely mind

I'm gonna keep drinkin' till I can't even think

'Cause in the last week, I ain't slept a wink

There's a tear in my beer 'cause I'm crying for you dear

You are on my lonely mind
