Small Doses

You'd think after forty

Long days and nights

I'd finally get used to the rain

But until the storm passes

Outta my mind

The only thing I know

To take for the pain is

Small, small doses

A sip at a time

A little whiskey and water

I'll sit here all night

Some live with heartaches

But I'm killin' mine

With small, small doses

A sip at a time

My doctor said "Son

Ain't a thing I can do

To help you get on with your life"

So till I find a way

To forget about you

Me and your memory

Will have a big time

With small, small doses

A sip at a time

A little whiskey and water

I'll sit here all night

Some live with heartaches

But I'm killin' mine

With small, small doses

A sip at a time

With small, small doses

A sip at a time

A little Jim Beam and water

I'll sit here all night

Some live with heartaches

But I'm killing mine

With small, small doses

A sip at a time

With small, small doses

A sip at a time
