Gin With No Tonic Songtext
von Mini Simmons

I woke with a start in a busy sweat
I′d been afternoon sleeping in my ornate chair
Waiting for 7 to come around
Then, I'll be drinking alone

Work on a Tuesday is dragging its feet
Got my day-old sandwich, with its week-old meat
Vagabonds laugh at this life of mine
To them, I′ll be drinking

A gin with no tonic
It helps to feel strange
When tomorrows a promise
And rainbows only come out for the rain


Oh, morning after the weight of it all
Dance behind sorry as I crawl out the door
Maybe the barbs were an oversight
When, I was drinking

A gin with no tonic
It helps to feel strange
When tomorrows a promise
And rainbows only come out for the rain

Tucked in by 8 the following eve
Her side lays cold as I toss in my sleep
Reach for the glass, racing mind of mine
Again, I'm drinking

A gin with no tonic
It helps to feel strange
When tomorrows a promise
And rainbows only come out for the rain
