David Allan Coe & John Hartford D-R-U-N-K Lyrics:
[Backup singers:]
How do you spell relief?
[John Hartford:]
I get D-R-U-N-K.
[Hartford:]
Lately, Dave, since my baby left me,
I do it almost every day.
It's the only thing that I've found,
That'll take the hurt away.
[David Allan Coe:] But, how do you spell relief, John?
[Hartford:] I get D-R-U-N-K.
[Harford:]
Well, ev'ry night about sundown,
I get a pain down deep inside.
This old broken heart acts up,
There's a hurtin' in my pride.
But I've found a sure fire treatment,
That'll get me feelin' right.
When your memory starts a-flarin' up,
I just head for the neon lights.
[Backup singers:] How do you spell relief,
[Hartford:] David?
[Coe:] I get D-R-U-N-K.
Lately since my baby left,
I do it almost every day.
It's the only thing that I've found, John,
That'll take the hurt away.
[Hartford & backup singers:] Well how do you spell relief?
[Coe:] I just get D-R-U-N-K.

John Hartford.
Yeeeaaaah.
[Coe:]
I don't need no doctor,
Tell me what is wrong.
I can fill my own perscriptions.
And it lasts me all night long.
It's the perfect medication,
For an ailment such as mine.
I forget about the tears I've cried,
When the whiskey hits my mind.
[Hartford, Coe & backup singers:]
How do we spell relief?
We get D-R-U-N-K.
[Hartford:]
Lately since my baby left me,
I do it almost every day.
[Coe:]
Well I tell ya, Johnny,
It's the only thing I've found,
That'll take the pain away.
[Hartford, Coe & backup singers:]
How do we spell relief?
We get D-R-U-N-K.
How do we spell relief?
We get D-R-U-N-K.
How do we spell relief?
We get D-R-U-N-K.
[Coe:]
We're havin' fun now ain't we?
[D-R-U-N-K]
