My Best Drinkin'
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
We had a little fight tonight buddy it got vicious
And all the way out the door I was duckin' 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.
Chorus:
That's when I do my best drinkin'
When I'm thinkin' about her
All the fussin' and fightin'
Leaves me dyin' of thirst
Go ahead and take the keys to my car
Make a little room at the bar
'Cause buddy when the fightin' starts
My best drinkin'.
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..
Chorus:
That's when I do my best drinkin'
When I'm thinkin' about her
All the fussin' and fightin'
Leaves me dyin' of thirst
Go ahead and take the keys to my car
Make a little room at the bar
'Cause buddy when the fightin' starts
My best drinkin'.
I ain't seein' double yet, set em up Joe's
I'm ain't as think as you drunk I am
Hell you outta know.
Chorus:
That's when I do my best drinkin'
When I'm thinkin' about her
All the fussin' and fightin'
Leaves me dyin' of thirst
Go ahead and take the keys to my car
Make a little room at the bar
'Cause buddy when the fightin' starts
My best drinkin'.
Well, I'll tell you when I've had enough
I'm just gettin' loosened up
'Cause buddy when love gets tough
That's when I do my best drinkin'...
