I woke up with some Wild Turkey starin' at me.
I poured a couple fingers into my cup of coffee.
I got up and I tried to recall the whole night.
Why do I drink so much? Why do I smoke on that pipe?
Nobody said I've got to act like a Hollywood star.
I've wasted too many hours in far too many bars
I don't like to drink alone at all.
verse 2
Next thing I know the phone is ringin' off the wall.
I stumbled through the beer and the cigarettes and women and all.
It's just my wife, she said "I've had it now and I'm talkin' the kids".
I down another chug-a-lug and blow her a whiskey kiss.
Nobody said I've got to act like a Hollywood star.
I've wasted too many hours in far too many bars
I don't like to drink alone at all.
Bridge
They told me everything would be fine
But they li--ed.
I knew that drinkin' alone was not right,
At least in my mi--nd.

verse 3
On the bus again, crossin' all the state borders.
I'm on my way to another late night recording.
Got all my friends on board and some in cars on the side,
Cause you know I'll need some help drinkin' my way
Through the night.
Nobody said I've got to act like a Hollywood star.
I've wasted too many hours in far too many bars
I don't like to drink alone at all.
