Can’t Drink Straight

[Verse 1]
I really hate to take the taste out of this Makers
But the stronger that it is, less time it takes her
To sneak back into my mind
Gonna need some Coke and ice
Just to cut the hurt that came with her goodbye

[Chorus]
I can't drink straight out the gate of our breakup
Can't take the burn of the hard stuff
When I have it neat
It's our memories that mess me up
Throw back a few no mixer
Ain't long until I miss her kiss
I ain't over it, no
I better water it down
Or I'll call her in an hour
'Cause when I'm gone she's all I chase
So I can't drink straight
No I can't drink straight

[Verse 2]
Don't take much before my mind starts getting cloudy
Like the Portland sky she traded in for Cali
Oh, glass by glass
It all comes rushing back
I'm sober and then she goes to my head

[Chorus]
So I can't drink straight out the gate of a breakup
Can't take the burn of the hard stuff
When I have it neat
It's our memories that mess me up
Throw back a few no mixer
Ain't long until I miss her kiss
I ain't over it, no
I better water it down
Or I'll call her in an hour
'Cause when I'm gone she's all I chase
So I can't drink straight
No I can't drink straight

[Chorus]
I can't drink straight out the gate of a breakup
Can't take the burn of the hard stuff
When I have it neat
It's our memories that mess me up
Throw back a few no mixer
Ain't long until I miss her kiss
I ain't over it, no
I better water it down
Or I'll call her in an hour
Cuz when I'm gone she's all I chase
So I can't drink straight
No I can't drink straight
