Hank Jr:

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

Hank Sr:

Last night I walked the floor

And the night before

Both:

You are on my lonely mind

Hank Sr:

It seems my life is through

And I'm so doggone blue

Both:

You are on my lonely mind

Hank Sr:

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

And then maybe my heart won't hurt me so

Both:

There's a tear in my beer

Cause I'm cryin for you dear

You are on my lonely mind

Hank Sr:

Lord, I've tried and I've tried

But my tears I can't hide

Both:

You are on my lonely mind

Hank Sr:

All these blues that I've found

Have really got me down

Both:

You are on my lonely mind

I'm gonna keep drinkin til 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
