  • Well, it's Friday evenin', six o'clock
    And all my friends are twistin' off
    I'm at the house just turnin' on TV
    Well, they all wonder why I've changed
    How many times must I explain?
    It's basic honky-tonk anatomy

    The drinkin' bone's connected to the party bone
    The party bone's connected to the stayin' out all night long
    And she won't think it's funny and I'll wind up all alone
    And the lonely bone's connected to the drinkin' bone

    Hey, two plus two is always four
    And down is south and up is north
    And 32 degrees is freezing cold
    You play with fire, you end up burned
    The early-bird gets the worm
    But the only thing you really need to know is

    The drinkin' bone's connected to the party bone
    The party bone's connected to the stayin' out all night long
    And she won't think it's funny and I'll wind up all alone
    And the lonely bone's connected to the drinkin' bone

    Yeah, now sing it with me
    Let's make sure you know

    The drinkin' bone's connected to the party bone
    The party bone's connected to the stayin' out all night long
    And she won't think it's funny and I'll wind up all alone
    And the lonely bone's connected to

    The drinkin' bone's connected to the party bone
    The party bone's connected to the stayin' out all night long
    And she won't think it's funny and I'll wind up all alone
    And the lonely bone's connected to the drinkin' bone Writer/s: Casey Beathard, Kerry Phillips
