Hundred Proof Memories Lyrics - George Jones

(Keith Stegall - Zack Turner) 

Love on the rocks that's all he said 

As he sat there beside me shaking his head 

I said, Mister, you look like you're taking it rough 

The next round's on me. He said, I don't touch the stuff. 

'Cause these hundred proof mem'ries are stronger than wine 

It don't take but one taste to send you out of your mind 

No, I don't want the whiskey but I could sure use a ride 

'Cause with hundred proof mem'ries, Lord, you don't think and drive.

He said, I quit drinkin' the day that she left 

I come here out of habit in spite of myself 

But there ain't no liquor that money can buy 

That's stronger than what's bottled up inside.

No, I don't want the whiskey but I could sure use a ride 

'Cause with hundred proof mem'ries, Lord, you don't think and drive. 

No, I don't want the whiskey but I could sure use a ride 

'Cause with hundred proof mem'ries, Lord, you don't think and drive...
