We were all drinking at marge's one    night    When an old cowboy came through the    door    He took a few shaky steps    Then he started to moan    And he keeled over right on the floor    Doc came on over, took his stethoscope    out    He listened and he looked in his eyes    He said, "Boys stick around    I just might need your help    I'm afraid this will be a long night"       CHORUS    Cause there's a five gallon tear, a five- gallon tear    Lodged in this poor boy's heart    By the look in his eyes he ain't cried in    years    And he's reatining a five gallon tear       Doc wrote a prescription to induce him    to cry    It was whiskey and sad country songs    We propped him up in a booth    And poured a drink down his throat    Then we turned that old wurlitzer on    Well he spluttered and he coughed    And he hung down his head    As those lonely songs worked on his    heart    When the memories started coming six    minutes apart    We laid him face-up on the bar       SECOND CHORUS    And then a five gallon tear, a five gallon    tear    Slowly welled up in his eyes    We all yelled, "Push!" and we all gave a    cheer    When he cried that five gallon tear       BRIDGE    That jar by the door don't hold pig feet    no more    The contents are sparkling clear    That liquid within is not moonshine or    gin    It's a reminder to everyone here       THIRD CHORUS    Yeah, it's a five gallon tear, a five gallon    tear    Let this be a lesson to you    Keep your sorrow inside for too many    years    And you'll cry that five gallon tear       Buddy you'll cry    You'll cry a five gallon tear       Reprise: REPEAT THIRD CHORUS       FADE
