Gulf of Mexico
I've tried every uptown bar
Every roadside dive
Closed down every honky-tonk
Lit with a neon light
I've poured it all but nothing works
Drank it fast, sipped it slow
I don't think I could heal the hurt
In the heart you broke
If the Gulf of Mexico was full of whiskey
That Grand Canyon full of wine
It wouldn't be enough to drown your memory
And you would still be on my mind
I've tried holding someone new
On that old dance floor
But every song just sounds like you
I just miss you more
I've tried every single thing
But nothing takes your place
I could drink this whole bar dry
But I couldn't drink you away
If the Gulf of Mexico was full of whiskey
That Rio Grande filled with wine
it wouldn't be enough to drown your memory
And you would still be on my mind
Every night and day
Every sip I take
What am I gonna do?
Girl, I couldn't get over you
If the Gulf of Mexico was full of whiskey
That red river flowed with wine
It wouldn't be enough to drown your memory
And you would still be on my mind
