Half alive and still drinking
Half in love and slowly sinking
Down to the level of my own thinking in the bottle
Half in love and half alive
And I'm still drinking

I never thought I'd turn to drinking
But here I sit this bottle in my hand
'Cause I can't live with half my woman's loving
Lord, she's made me feel like half a man

Half alive and still drinking
Half in love and slowly sinking
Down to the level of my own thinking in the bottle
Half in love and half alive
And I'm still drinking

I never thought she'd turn to cheating
But a man's love can be oh, so blind
Half of me is trying to forget her
While half of me is out of my mind

Half alive and still drinking
Half in love and slowly sinking
Down to the level of my own thinking in the bottle
Half in love and half alive
And I'm still drinking
