Good Year For The Wine Lyrics - Ernest Tubb

Some people say I drink because you left me 

And they say that wine won't drown your memory 

But the reason that I drink is not to get you off my mind 

I just heard this was a good year for the wine 

It doesn't bother me now that you're gone and I haven't thought about you in so long 

And I'm not in this honky tonk cause you're no longer mine 

I just heard this was a good year for the wine 

[ steel ] 

It's not the neon lights that drove me to this tavern 

All the lonely sound you're running to inside 

It's not my losing you that keeps me drinking all the time 

I just heard this was a good year for the wine 

It doesn't bother me now... 

I just heard this was a good year for the wine
