You're Not Drinking Enough
written: D. Kortchmar

I can see that you haven't recovered
From the girl you let you down
And you'd sell what is left of your soul
For another go-round
You keep telling yourself she means nothing
And maybe you should call her bluff
But you don't really believe it
You must not be drinkin' enough

Well, the perfume she wore you can buy down at the Five & Dime
But on some other woman, it don't smell the same in your mind
You keep telling yourself you can take it --
Telling yourself that you're tough
But you still wanna hold her
You must not be drinkin' enough

You're not drinkin' enough to wash away old memories
And there ain't enough whiskey in Texas
To keep you from beggin', "Please, please, please"

She passed on your passion and stepped on your pride
Turns out you ain't quite so tough
'Cause you still wanna hold her
You must not be drinkin' enough

Ay-yi-yi-yi
Ask yourself why
You still wanna hold her
You must not be drinkin' enough
Ay-yi-yi-yi etc.
