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 cryin' for you dear

You were on my lonely mind

Last night I walked the floor and the night before

You were on my lonely mind

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

You were on my lonely mind

I'm going to 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 going to keep on 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 cryin' for you dear

You are on my lonely mind

You are on my lonely mind
