EAT, DRINK AND BE MERRY

Little heart, you've been broken many times before
But the wound always heals no matter how sore
But this time it's different, and I can't tell you why
Eat, drink and be merry, tomorrow you'll cry

They say that time will erase all my sorrow
Well, I guess since I've lost you I'll find out tomorrow
Be gay while she's with you, don't break down and cry
Eat, drink and be merry, tomorrow you'll cry

A heart that is stricken with hate and with lies
Will soon be forsaken and left there to die
Well, I guess that's what happened, she said her goodbye
Eat, drink and be merry, tomorrow you'll cry

According to AMG, authorship of "Eat, Drink and Be Merry (For Tomorrow..." is attributed to "Ferguson/Ferguson." That could be Bob Ferguson, Sandra Ferguson, and/or Celia Ferguson, all of whom wrote songs that Porter Wagoner recorded (according to this page).
