The Things You Do When You\’re Drinking Lyrics by Jim Morris

0

She's a beauty, but she's got rabies
Hey Buddy, where'd you get your date?
I think you'd better get back to the zoo
Before it gets too late
I'm sorry, Mr. Weightlifter Man;
I guess I have no defense
It's just the things you do when you're drinking
Oh, they seem to make so much sense
I'm ready. Hey, let's get a tattoo
I want a great big anchor on my chest
Or maybe that heart that says I Love Mary
Oh, I think I like that one the best
I'm sorry, Linda
I guess I have no defense
It's just the things you do when you're drinking
Oh, they seem to make so much sense
BRIDGE:
Now we've been having ourselves one hell of a night
We've been drinking since early this morning
That tequila, rum, wine and beer all mixed up together
Sort of sneaks up without much warning
And I know I really should go home;
Hell, It's quarter till three
Do another shot of Wild Turkey?
Well now, that makes sense to me
Hey baby, can I come over?
Yeah, I know it's four–thirty
But hey, just think of it as a date for tonight
And I'm stopping by just a little bit early, yeah
I'm sorry Mr. Jones – I didn't catch your voice
I guess I have no defense
It's just the things that you do when you're drinking
Oh, they seem to make so much sense
BRIDGE:
Pull over! Walk a straight line!
Now what kind of game is this?
I wasn't weaving; I was trying to dodge an armadillo back there
And I bet his armadillo family is sure glad I missed
Well, I'm sorry Mr. Ociffer Man;
I guess I have no defense
It's just the things that you do when you're drinking
Oh, they seem to make so much sense
Yeah, it's just the things that you do when you're drinking, oh
They seem to make so much sense
