Lyrics Kevin Fowler – A Drinkin’ Song

I could really use a drinkin’ song
The kind that makes me wanna drink along
Turn it up and let me tie one on
And make a memory drown

I got the honky-tonkin’ blues disease
The cure is Jack Daniels if you please
I’m whiskey-bent and hell-bound again
I wanna swim in misery and gin

I could really use a drinkin’ song
The kind that makes me wanna drink along
Turn it up and let me tie one on
And make a memory drown
It don’t matter if it’s slow or fast
Long as it’s country and it kicks some ass
I wanna party till the heartache’s gone
I could really use a drinkin’ song, yeah

(It ain’t a drinkin’ song ‘less you get to drinkin’, boys)

?
is a friend of mine
Whiskey River always takes my mind
Every time a memory comes around
White Lightning always drags it down

I could really use a drinkin’ song
The kind that makes me wanna drink along
Turn it up and let me tie one on
And make a memory drown

I could really use a drinkin’ song
The kind that makes me wanna drink along
Turn it up and let me tie one on
And make a memory drown
It don’t matter if it’s slow or fast
Long as it’s country and it kicks my ass
I wanna party till the heartache’s gone
Yeah, I could really use a drinkin’ song
Oh yeah

(Drink ’em up boys!
Every time I’m around you I’m drinkin’!)
