What That Drink Cost Me  ――  Sara Evans
He drove off in his pickup truck
To meet his buddies for a few more beers

I said baby I'll come pick you up

He never called so I waited here

Til all my worst fears came true

And I heard the knock at the door

Telling me he ain't coming back no more

Blue lights flashed and I fell to the floor

And I lost a good man

To a bad habit

He didn't love the whiskey

He just had to have it

If you could put a price tag

On everything that haunts me

Than you'd know

What that drink cost me

Use to be I'd pour it out

Every drop down the kitchen sink

So many nights I'd scream and shout

Even tried to hide his keys
Oh I tried everything

To keep him from going down that road

In my heart just let him go

But you can't stop a hellbent soul

And I lost a good man

To a bad habit

He didn't love the whiskey
He just had to have it
If you could put a price tag

On everything that haunts me
Then you'd know
What that drink cost me

I cried a tear for every drop

That turned a hero into a coward

And I'd give anything

For just one happy hour

Cause I lost a good man
To a bad habit
He didn't love the whiskey
He just had to have it
If you could put price tag
On everything that haunts me
Then you'd know
What that drink cost me
Yes you'd know
What that drink cost me
He drove off in his pickup truck
To meet his buddies for a few more beers
