The nail is still on the wall the frame is still on the ground In the same place they were the night you left town There's only one day a year I let these tears flood out It's the one day a year I drink my whiskey watered down Well, I swallowed my pride still get a lump in my throat Every damn time I walk through that door There's only one place I'll cry its this lonesome old house It's the one place I know I'll drink my whiskey watered down It don't rain in this city but it storms every day Diluting the one thing that keeps my pain at bay Well I need something stronger and it ain't in this town If I stay I'll always drink my whiskey watered down If I stay I'll always drink my whiskey watered down If I stay I'll always drink my whiskey watered down
