Darling I recognize that glare in your eyes
when I'm about to get the business
But before you complain please let me explain
I think you'll understand my position
You've read all those books I know your looks,
You think people who drink solo have problems
But I ain't drinkin alone
I'm on the phone with my brother
Now my brother it seems is as confounded as me
by the art of the marital tradition
So we drink and we dial and shoot the breeze for a while
Heck it's just like we were out fishin
And it's well after nine, it don't cost us a dime
We think it's an elegant solution
We ain't drinkin alone
We're on the phone with our brother
And the good news is I'm right here for you
As close as the garage
The kegerator and me and AT&T
And my brother if you'd like to say hello
I ain't drinkin alone
I'm on the phone with my brother
Darling, you are my spouse and you got some rules for our house
And I sure do respect your decisions
But if you just calm down you'll see that I found
A loophole in the social condition
Well I love beer and I love you
Not necessarily in that order
I ain't drinkin alone
I'm on the phone with my brother
And the good news is I'm right here for you
As close as the garage
The kegerator and me and AT&T
And my brother if you'd like to say hello
You wouldn't hear me complain if you did the same
Get some wine and go call your sister
I ain't drinking alone
I'm on the phone with my brother
