Liquor Continues to Flow
Gus Burton

Don’t you know sweetheart
You’re going to lose me
And my love for you is fading fast,
And the life we now have together
Will soon be a thing of the past

And you know, you should have seen it coming
But you were too blind to see
All those nights that you left me lonely
That another would take your place with me

Oh the liquor has washed away our love dear
Like a flood it’s wrecked our happy home
And I thought that I could change your ways dear
But the liquor it continues to flow

All these years I’ve put up with your drinking
For the sake of family and kids
But I can no longer live this way dear
And the time has come for me to leave

And as I pack my bags to leave you
I know you’ll never understand
That the liquor has killed my love for you dear
And drove me to the arms of another man

Oh the liquor has washed away our love dear
Like a flood it’s wrecked our happy home
And I thought that I could change your ways dear
But the liquor it continues to flow

Yes the liquor continues to flow
