You'd think after forty
Long days and nights
I'd finally get used to the rain
But until the storm passes
Outta my mind
The only thing I know
To take for the pain is

Small, small doses
A sip at a time
A little whiskey and water
I'll sit here all night
Some live with heartaches
But I'm killin' mine
With small, small doses
A sip at a time

My doctor said "Son
Ain't a thing I can do
To help you get on with your life"
So till I find a way
To forget about you
Me and your memory
Will have a big time

With small, small doses
A sip at a time
A little whiskey and water
I'll sit here all night
Some live with heartaches
But I'm killin' mine
With small, small doses
A sip at a time

With small, small doses
A sip at a time
A little Jim Beam and water
I'll sit here all night
Some live with heartaches
But I'm killing mine
With small, small doses
A sip at a time

With small, small doses
A sip at a time
