I Ain't Drunk

(альбом: Whitey Morgan And The 78's - 2010)

Well I sat down on a barstool
In a honky tonk last night
That little bartender gave me a look
I knew something sure wasn't right
Well I ordered up another whiskey
One tequila, and one more beer
That's when that bartender told me
"Son", he said, "You been cut off in here"

I told him, I ain't drunk
Hell, I've just been drinking
I started five in the afternoon
Lord, about three days ago
Ever since my baby left me
This old heart of mine's been sinking
But I ain't drunk
I've just been drinking

Well the ride home from the barroom
Must have been quite a sight
Hell, I guess I was doing a pretty good job
Yeah, they put me in the old spotlight
When I got through putting on my show
I heard, "Hands on the wheel buddy, nice and slow"
And I fell out of the car
Lord, on the side of the road

I told him I ain't drunk
Hell, I've just been drinking
I started five in the afternoon
Lord, about three days ago
Well hey hey Mr. Policeman
I know just what you're thinking
But I ain't drunk
I've just been drinking

I told him I ain't drunk, son
I've just been drinking
