My Best Drinkin'

(album: Savin' The Honky Tonk - 2004)

We had a little fight tonight buddy it got vicious
And all the way out the door I was ducking dishes
I thought I'd let her simmer down just a few degrees
So I came in here to have a beer or two or three.

That's when I do my best drinking
When I'm thinking about her
All the fussing and fighting
Leaves me dying of thirst
Go ahead and take the keys to my car
Make a little room at the bar
'Cause buddy when the fighting starts
My best drinking.

Now give me something cold and wet in a long neck bottle
'Cause she said some things to me tonight that were hard to swallow
It's gonna take me all night long to wash 'em down
'Cause when she makes me lose my cool one thing I've found..

That's when I do my best drinking
When I'm thinking about her
All the fussing and fighting
Leaves me dying of thirst
Go ahead and take the keys to my car
Make a little room at the bar
'Cause buddy when the fighting starts
My best drinking.

I ain't seeing double yet, set em up Joe's
I'm ain't as think as you drunk I am
Hell you outta know.

That's when I do my best drinking
When I'm thinking about her
All the fussing and fighting
Leaves me dying of thirst
Go ahead and take the keys to my car
Make a little room at the bar
'Cause buddy when the fighting starts
My best drinking.

Well, I'll tell you when I've had enough
I'm just getting loosened up
'Cause buddy when love gets tough
That's when I do my best drinking...
