Cryin' In My Beer Over You copyright 1993 John R. Bockelman
You came down from Dallas on a Greyhound
And you been in this ol' town since '92
Workin' as a waitress in a roadside honky-tonk
And I couldn't help but fall in love with you
But now I'm cryin' in my beer over you
Cause you have gone and found you someone new
All I got are these memories
And dreams that won't come true
I'm cryin' in my beer over you
You said love's a game and so I played along
But you mixed up our sweet love with dirty pool
I feel just like a joker in a deck of playin' cards
That's set up minus one from fifty-two
And now I'm cryin' in my beer over you
Cause you have gone and left me for someone new
All I got are these teardrops
And a half-finished tattoo
I'm cryin' in my beer over you
You laughed when my guitar went in hock last month
And you were there when the repo man came, too
You didn't care when the lights and phone and gas turned off last week
And you disappeared when the rent came up past-due
So now I'm cryin' in my beer over you
Cause you have gone and found you someone new
All I got are these heartaches
And bills that are half-past due
I'm cryin' in my beer over you
I'm cryin' in my beer over you
