What Was I Drinking

  • Just another Friday night
    Hanging out with my friends
    Laughing and tippin' 'em back
    Just like you never left
    That buzz was leading me on
    Helping me to forget
    Can't believe I was telling myself

    It ain't gonna hurt that bad
    You ain't gonna want her back
    Least that's what the drinks had me thinking
    Bartender, pour 'em all strong
    That girl is better off gone
    I was drunk and the room kept spinning
    I guess the whiskey on ice
    Had me believing them lies
    'Til the missing you sank in
    What was I drinking?
    Yeah

    My buddies kept 'em coming
    'Til I was feeling nothing
    We were done, I wasn't thinking 'bout us
    Won't be no happy ending
    So I just kept pretending
    I didn't even love you that much

    It ain't gonna hurt that bad
    You ain't gonna want her back
    Least that's what the drinks had me thinking
    Bartender, pour 'em all strong
    That girl is better off gone
    I was drunk and the room kept spinning
    I guess the whiskey on ice
    Had me believing them lies
    'Til the missing you sank in
    What was I drinking?

    What was I drinking?

    It ain't gonna hurt that bad
    You ain't gonna want her back
    Least that's what the drinks had me thinking
    Bartender, pour 'em all strong
    That girl is better off gone
    I was drunk and the room kept spinning
    I guess the whiskey on ice
    Had me believing them lies
    'Til the missing you sank in
    What was I drinking?
    What was I drinking?
