Yeah, I've been throwing down the whiskey

I 'aught to get my money back

And someone said it drowns a memory

Ah, but it ain't doing jack

Yeah, I've been sippin', I've been buzzin'

Shootin' doubles like it's nothin'

Ah, but nothing makes you go away

I need something you proof

Something stronger than I'm used to

Yeah, I've been pourin' ninety to a hundred

Feel like nothing's gonna cut it, that's the hard truth

Yeah, I need something you proof

Oh, I need something you proof

Put 'em up 'til they shut 'em down, yeah

You never ain't not around, yeah

Don't matter what time, what town

I can't get you gone

Turn a bar, yeah, upside down

Just looking for something that does it

I give 'em all my money

Ain't nobody selling nothing you proof

Something stronger than I'm used to

Yeah, I've been pourin' ninety to a hundred

Feel like nothing's gonna cut it, that's the hard truth

Yeah, I need something you proof

Oh, I need something you proof

Hey, I've been mixing liquors trying to get you gone

Ah, but I must be doing something wrong

'Cause I've been working hard to fade your memory

Baby, but the only thing faded is me

I need something you proof

Something stronger than I'm used to

Yeah, I've been pourin' ninety to a hundred

Feel like nothing's gonna cut it, that's the hard truth

I need something you proof

(put 'em up 'til they shut 'em down, yeah)

Ah, I need something you proof (you never ain't not around)

(Don't matter what time, what town)

(I can't get you gone)

(Turn a bar, yeah, upside down)

(Just looking for something that does it)

(I'll give 'em all my money)

(Ain't nobody selling nothing you proof)
