DRINKING AGAIN
(Music and Lyrics: Johnny Mercer and Doris Tauber)

Drinking again and thinking of when, when you loved me
I'm having a few and wishing that you were here
Making the rounds, accepting a round from a strangers
Being a fool just hoping that you'll appear

Sure, I can borrow a smoke
Maybe tell some joker a bad joke
But nobody laughs
They don't laugh at a broken heart

Oh, yeah, I'm drinking again
It's always the same, that same old story
After the kicks, there's little old mixed up me
Tryin' to lose a dream that used to be

Look at me I'm drinking again
Drinking all over town
Yeah, I'm drinking again


OVER THE RAINBOW
(Lyrics: Harold Arlen and E.Y. Harburg)

Somewhere, over the rainbow, way up high
There's a land that I heard of, once in a lullaby
Somewhere, over the rainbow, skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream really do come true

Someday I'll wish upon a star and
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where troubles melt like lemon drops away
Above the chimney tops, that's where you'll find me

Somewhere, over the rainbow, bluebirds fly
Birds fly over the rainbow, why then, oh, why can't I?
If happy little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbow
Why, oh, why can't I?

Alcoholism, also known as alcohol dependence, is a disabling addictive disorder. It is characterized by compulsive and uncontrolled consumption of alcohol despite its negative effects on the drinker's health, relationships, and social standing. Like other drug addictions, alcoholism is medically defined as a treatable disease. The term "alcoholism" is a widely used term first coined in 1849 by Magnus Huss, but in medicine the term was replaced by "alcohol abuse" and "alcohol dependence" in the 1980s DSM III.
