Gulf of Mexico

I've tried every uptown bar

Every roadside dive

Closed down every honky-tonk

Lit with a neon light

I've poured it all but nothing works

Drank it fast, sipped it slow

I don't think I could heal the hurt

In the heart you broke

If the Gulf of Mexico was full of whiskey

That Grand Canyon full of wine

It wouldn't be enough to drown your memory

And you would still be on my mind

I've tried holding someone new

On that old dance floor

But every song just sounds like you

I just miss you more

I've tried every single thing

But nothing takes your place

I could drink this whole bar dry

But I couldn't drink you away

If the Gulf of Mexico was full of whiskey

That Rio Grande filled with wine

it wouldn't be enough to drown your memory

And you would still be on my mind

Every night and day

Every sip I take

What am I gonna do?

Girl, I couldn't get over you

If the Gulf of Mexico was full of whiskey

That red river flowed with wine

It wouldn't be enough to drown your memory

And you would still be on my mind
