It's a little bit funny
But mostly just sad
That each and every beer
Is the best I've ever had
Drowning all my sorrows
In a pint-sized glass
I'll feel it all tomorrow
But tonight ain't bad
You ain't pretty now
But just like the weather
Wait a little bit
It gets a little bit better
When the liquor starts flowing
I can go out and get her
If she can understand me
While I'm slurring all my letters
I've drunk far
And I've drunk wide
I've backed my days
With a slice of lime
Every bartender
Is a friend of mine
Til the jingle in my pockets
Starts getting real quiet
I ain't ever been in love
In Mexico
But one tequila, two tequila,
Vamonos
I don't need a sunset
To let me know
That beauty comes
In shades of gold
And of all of my friends
That I've met on the road
Mister Jack Daniel
Is the best I've ever known
Sitting in my glass
He won't leave me alone
And when I get tired
He'll drive me home
It's a little bit funny
But mostly just sad
That each and every drink
Is the best I've ever had
Drowning all my sorrows
In a two-inch glass
I'll feel it all tomorrow
But tonight ain't bad
