Drinkin' Again

Lyrics

Feels like a Friday night
 But it's only Monday afternoon
 Still there's a party goin' on in my livin' room
 It's just me and fifth of Beam
 Swayin' to the sounds of old George Jones
 And it won't be long 'til the whole damn bottle's gone
 And I know it might sound sad
 But to tell the truth it ain't half bad
 I love my misery
 Gonna drown my blues in a sea of whiskey
 I'm drinkin' again
 Tryin' hard to hide the pain I'm in
 So don't give me any shit, I know just what I'm gettin' in
 Sure, it's a sin but I don't really give a damn
 I'm drinkin' again
 I've got no friends to call
 They've all straightened up and settled down
 And they don't ever wanna hang around
 But I guess I understand
 This house ain't much for company
 Smells like a cesspool here
 It's stinkin' nasty
 And you might say I'm bad off
 But I chose the road I strumbled across
 I picked my poison
 Give me another shot of bourbon
 Cause I'm drinkin' again
 Tryin' hard to hide the pain I'm in
 So don't give me any shit, I know just what I'm gettin in
 Sure, it's a sin but I don't really give a damn
 I'm drinkin' again
 Well fortunately for me I find relief
 When the world is weighin' down on me
 I pop a top, I take a shot, I drop a pill
 Turn the radio up, sit back and chill
 Pretend my life is a bed of roses
 Try not to notice all the ghosts
 That are hauntin me and tauntin me
 And wantin me to cut my wrists
 So they can watch me bleed
 And laugh at me, as I scream in agony
 I get high for the sake of my family
 Cause the alcohol is all that's helpin me
 To cope since I went broke and lost my hope
 I kicked my girl to the curb of the road
 You know I couldn't afford to support us both
 Hell I'm not rich, don't have a good job
 Do construction work with this dude named Bob
 And he's an ass. Yells at me all the time
 Pays minimum wage on overtime
 Still he's got it made, drives an Escalade
 And gets two hundred times what I get paid
 But that's okay.
 I'll drink to his health and ruin mine
 I'll chug liquor and he can sip red wine
 And I'll be fine. Trying to find some peace
 I'll quit payin' my rent and I'll break my lease
 I'll live out on the streets and beg for change
 Crawl in a box when it starts to rain
 Forget my family and my friends
 Forget the world, ya'll, I'm drinkin' again
 I'm drinkin' again
 Tryin' hard to hide the pain I'm in
 So don't give me any shit, I know just what I'm gettin in
 Sure, it's a sin, but I done lost control
 And I'm drinkin' again y'all
 I'm drinkin' again
 I'm drinkin' again...
 I done said goodbye
 To the twelve-step program
 I'm drinkin' again...
