Turnin' Off A Memory Lyrics

Let me tell you about a song
That I wrote especially for my friends with drinkin' problems
Or maybe I should say my friends with problems enough to drink
Anyway it's just an old theme of a man sittin' in a barroom tryin' to drown his past
It's called "I'm Turnin' Off A Memory"


You can find me in a dim-lighted barroom
If your coldness should ever turn warm
But the chances of you ever changing
Are as slim as your two loving arms

So I'm turning off a memory
As quickly as time will allow
Yes, I'm turning off a memory
And the wine seems to help me somehow

If I'm lucky I'll someday forget her
When the wine finally takes full control
But that's not much of a future to look to
But I can't stand this pain in his soul

So I'm turning off a memory
As quickly as time will allow
I'm turning off a memory
And the wine seems to help me somehow
And the wine seems to help me somehow
