Well I've been throwing down the whiskey
I 'aught to get my money back
Someone said it drowns a memory
Ah but it ain't doing jack
Yeah I've been sippin', I've been buzzing
Shooting doubles like it's nothing
Aw but nothing makes it go away

I need something "you proof," something stronger than I'm used to
I've been pouring 90 to 100 feelin' like nothings gonna cut it that's the hard truth
Yeah, I need something "you proof," aw, I need something "you proof"

Put em up till they shut em down, yeah
You never ain't not around, yeah
Don't matter what time, what town, I can't get you gone
Turn a party upside down, just looking for something that does it
I'll give them all my money

Ain't nobody selling nothing "you proof"
Something stronger than I'm used to
Yeah, I've been pouring 90 to 100 feelin' like nothings gonna cut it that's the hard truth
I need something "you proof," I need something "you proof"

Yeah, I've been mixing liquors trying to get you gone
But I guess I must be doing something wrong
'Cause I've been working hard to fade your memory
Baby but the only thing faded is me

I need something "you proof," something stronger than I'm used to
Yeah I've been pouring 90 to 100 feelin' like nothings gonna cut it that's the hard truth
I need something "you proof," aw, I need something "you proof"
