"I'm Drinkin' Canada Dry" lyrics - THE FLYING BURRITO BROTHERS

She left our home in Dallas
To be a singer in a band
I followed her to Montreal
To a hundred one-night stands
Cause I just can't live without her
And it's driving me insane
But I've found some Southern Comfort here,
'Till I make her mine again

[Chorus:]
I'm Drinking Canada Dry
Since my woman said goodbye.
Yes I'm up here in the cold and I want to get home,
But I'll settle for high!
And as each double goes down,
I toast another lonely town.
This bottles all I can see,
'till she comes back with me
I'm Drinking Canada Dry!

I'm like a Northwest Mountie
Can't let her get away
But these smoke filled bars are killing me,
Can't tell the night from day.
I got plastered in Toronto
And I begged her to come back.
Ah, but she said "No, I gotta go."
As I downed one more six pack

[Chorus:]
I'm Drinking Canada Dry
Since my woman said goodbye.
Yes I'm up here in the cold and I want to get home,
But I'll settle for high!
And as each double goes down,
I toast another lonely town.
This bottles all I can see,
'till she comes back with me
I'm Drinking Canada Dry!
