A country song written and recorded by Hank Williams, and later re-recorded by his son, Hank Williams Jr in 1988.
The music video for the song combined television footage that had existed of Hank Williams performing, onto which electronic merging technology impressed the recordings of Hank Jr., which then made it appear as if he were actually playing with his father.
There’s a tear in my beer ‘cause I’m cryin’ for you,dearyou are on my lonely mind.
And into these past few beers I have shed a million tears.
You are on my lonely mind
I’m gonna keep drinkin’ until I’m petrified.
And then maybe these tears will leave my eyes.
There’s a tear in my beer cause I’m crying’ for you dear
You are on my lonely mind. Last night I walked the floor and the night before
You are on my lonely mind.
It seems my life is through and I’m so doggone blue
You are on my lonely mind.
I’m gonna keep drinkin’ till I can’t move a toe
and then maybe my heart won’t hurt me so.
There’s a tear in my beer cause I’m cryin’ for you dear
You are on my lonely mind. Lord, I’ve tried and I’ve tried but my tears I can’t hide
You are on my lonely mind.
All these blues that I’ve found have really got me down
You are on my lonely mind
I’m gonna keep drinkin’ till I can’t even think
Cause in the last week I ain’t slept a wink
There’s a tear in my beer cause I’m crying for you dear
You are on my lonely mind.
