What's your favorite Drinkin' song title or lyric?

Question

Are there any Drinkin' song fans out there? Don't have to be just country. One of my all time favorite titles and lyrics are from the same song; Allyson Krause's "Whiskey Lullaby" with the lyric "She put the bottle to her head and pulled the trigger". Yeah, it's sad, but isn't that the point? thanks ahead

Hey Okiefan, you reminded me of another of my all-time favs, Merle's "Misery and Gin"

Answer 1

Its a little on the older side David Allan Coe You never even called me by my name

Answer 2

I like Whiskey Girl form Toby Keith-cause im a whiskey girl myslef
and Keg In The CLoset form Kenny.
I like the happier drinking songs but a good, saddish one is Thats Why I am HEre from Kenny-about an acoholic...

Answer 3

A favourite of mine is Terri Clarks, The World Needs A Drink. I like the more upbeat drinkin' songs.

Answer 4

Hire a wino- David Frissel

White Lightening- George Jones

Answer 5

The More I Drink - Blake Shelton
All My Friends Say - Luke Bryan
Whiskey Lullabye - Brad Paisley and Alisson Krauss

EDIT: Just thought of this one. How about Trick Pony's "Pour Me, Poor Me"

Answer 6

My first reaction is to say Whiskey River by Willy nelson but there are a few others I like. Toby Keith has a new one that has a little machismo poolhall attitude to it that I like called "Hit It"

I also like "I Love This Bar", "whiskey Girl" and
"You Aint Much Fun Since I Quit Drinkin.

A lot of people like "Beer For My Horses" but I think of that more as a vigilante song rather than a drinking song.

Brooks and Dunn have a few that I also enjoy..
Whiskey Under The Bridge

Whiskey Do My Talkin

People say I'm no-good,
And crazy as a loon.
I get stoned in the morning,
I get drunk in the afternoon.
Kinda like my old blue tick hound,
I like to lay around in the shade,
An', I ain't got no money,
But I damn sure got it made.

'Cos I ain't askin' nobody for nothin',
If I can't get it on my own.
If you don't like the way I'm livin',
You just leave this long-haired country boy alone.

Preacher man talkin' on the TV,
He's a-puttin' down the rock 'n' roll.
He wants me to send a donation,'Cos he's worried about my soul.
He said: "Jesus walked on the water,"And I know that is true,
But sometimes I think that preacher man,
Would like to do a little walkin', too.

But I ain't askin' nobody for nothin',
If I can't get it on my own.
You don't like the way I'm livin',
You just leave this long-haired country boy alone.

Instrumental Break.

A poor girl wants to marry, And a rich girl wants to flirt.
A rich man goes to college,And a poor man goes to work.
A drunkard wants another drink of wine,And a politician wants a vote.
I don't want much of nothin' at all,But I will take another toke.

'Cos I ain't askin' nobody for nothin',If I can't get it on my own.
If you don't like the way I'm livin',
You just leave this long-haired country boy alone.
