Henley, Don - You're Not Drinking Enough Lyrics






I can see that you haven't recovered from the girl who 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 drinking 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 want to hold her
You must not be drinkin' enough
Ay-yi-yi-yi [etc.]

    Say what you will, he's that damn good. I've listened to his music since the early 70's. He's best with the Eagles of my youth, but that's not to be any longer without Glenn. Pour us one more and hit replay.

    I can see that you haven't recovered from the girl who 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'r 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-yl-yl-yl
    Ask yourself why
    You still wanna hold her
    You must not be drinkin' enough
    Ay-yl-yl-yl etc
