Teach 'Em How to Swim - Hank Thompson
Babe you got me up a tree a
Way out on a limb
You told me lies you let me on
Then turned me down for him
You took my heart tore it all
Apart and then threw it away
And now that it's all over
Babe here's all I can say
Oh take my glass fill it
Up fill it to the brim
If I can't drown my troubles babe
I'll teach 'em how to swim
If I can't teach 'em how to swim
I'll teach 'em how to float
So please just pass one more
Glass to please my dusty throat
Grandpa's swallowed his first
Drink when he was only eight
The doctor warned him then
And there to stop before it was too late
But grandpa was a real strong
Man he wouldn't heed the plea
Now he's done drink hisself to
Death he died at ninety-three
So since my grandpa lived so long
I want to be like him
If I can't drown my troubles babe
I'll teach 'em how to swim
So here I sit in this old bar
My future's looking dim
If I can't drown my troubles babe
I'll teach 'em how to swim
Oh take my glass fill
It up fill it to the brim
If I can't drown my troubles babe
I'll teach 'em how to swim
If I can't teach 'em how to swim
I'll teach 'em how to float
So please just pass one more
Glass to please my dusty throat
