Big Bad Voodoo Daddy - You And Me And The Bottle Makes Three Tonight (Baby)

(Scotty Morris)
Hey Jack...I know what you're thinking.
That now's as good as any to start drinking.
Hey Scotty...Yeah...What's it gonna be?
A gin & tonic sounds might mighty good to me.
Man I know I gotta go it's the same thing every time,
but I don't think another drinks' gonna make me lose my mind.
So I think about my next drink,
and it's you & me and the bottle makes 3 tonight.
Well I know this cat named Mo. He wanders to and fro.
His and my favorite waterin' hole.
I said hey Mo, 'how you doing, where have you been?'
He said, 'I've been fine with my whiskey, wine and gin.'
Man I know I gotta go it's the same thing every time,
but I don't think another drinks' gonna make me lose my mind.
So I think about my next drink,
and it's you & me and the bottle makes 3 tonight.

Well a person can work up a mean mean thirst
after a hard day of nothin' much at all
Summer's passed, it's too late to cut the grass
There ain't much to rake anyway in the fall

And sometimes I just ain't in the mood
to take my place in back with the loudmouths
You're like a picture on the fridge that's never stocked with food
I used to live at home, now I stay at the house

And everybody wants to be special here
They call your name out loud and clear
Here comes a regular
Call out your name
Here comes a regular
Am I the only one here today?

Well a drinkin' buddy that's bound to another town
Once the police made you go away
And even if you're in the arms of someone's baby now
I'll take a great big whiskey to ya anyway

Everybody wants to be someone's here
Someone's gonna show up, never fear
'cause here comes a regular
Call out your name
Here comes a regular
Am I the only one who feels ashamed?

Kneeling alongside old Sad Eyes
He says opportunity knocks once then the door slams shut
All I know is I'm sick of everything that my money can buy
The fool who wastes his life, God rest his guts

First the lights, then the collar goes up, and the wind begins to blow
Turn your back on a pay-you-back, last call
First the glass, then the leaves that pass, then comes the snow
Ain't much to rake anyway in the fall

Christ. You're new-er than I am, but a better drinking song (at least for drinking alone) doesn't exist. Swingin' Party next, methinks.

Replacements are the best drinking music. Period. My Bloody Valentine after that - for mood drinkin' anyway

:)

I'll counter the Lucero(kick-ass) with Drag the River:

Barroom Bliss

My mind doesn't work so well these day
I drink all my waking hours away
If I sit here long enough
maybe I think of something
that'll makes you stay
something tells me not think at all
I sit in the darkness starin at the wall
This lonliness is hell
I search for drinks and things
to make me well
I spend my life staring
through my bloodshot eyes
I'll never know where I belong
With eyes closed fast
I play photographs of you
You stare at me and wonder
how I'm doing
I tell you that I'm fine
That thought echoes through my empty mind
I close my eyes again
With barroom bliss and a strangers kiss
I'm home
Cause noone ever wants to be alone
I doubt that there is a way
I'll ever speak the words
that'll make you stay
my mind doesnt work so well these days

Drag The River - Forgiveness

My daddy preached to me
everyday for years
the day that he died
I swallowed my tears
With a tip of the bottle
and a wish you were here
I'd trade forgiveness for a beer

I sat with my grandma in her rockin chair
the sun felt so warm through her light blue hair
From the pages of her bible
and a fresh breath of air
I'd trade forgiveness for a beer

I know my beliefs they aint right
it's the only way I can
make it through the night
i pray the lord to keep me asleep
so I can dream of the promise land
Cause my dreams are the only time I can
Sleep never makes it round here
We say amen
and gather at the bar
Amazing Grace loud and clear
i know what he'd say
if he were here

but I'd trade forgiveness for a beer
but I'd trade forgiveness for a beer

Drag The River - Booze N Pills

Moonlight and the stars above
This shallow pond is shining like the sun
The wind blows softly through your hair
We've got pills to help the alcohol to heal

So many lost words and lonely sounds
The deafening silence when you're not around
I can't feel a thing but thank god I
still have pills to the help the alcohol to heal

A call aint a call if no one answers
I can't find comfort in the topless dancers (he's not trying hard enough)
So give me a sign
I'll choke out my last line

Times flies by when when you're growing apart
A few angry tears and a change of heart
I empty my glass and put up my shield
With pills to help the alcohol to heal

Drag The River - Get Drunk

I love to get drunk
I love the movies
I love my TV my couch and my VCR
I love the way the sun reflects off the hood of my car
But I don't love you anymore

I love to drink late
I love to sleep all day
I love pinball and poolhalls and cheap draws
I love the way the neon signs light up the walls
But I don' love you anymore

I used to sit with you everynight
It got to the point where I'd get sick at the sight of you
I can't stand to sit around and think of
everything that's going on without me

I love the whiskey
I love to smoke till I can't breath
I love to fish at night and BBQ under the porch light
I hate to sing this song and think of you
crying alone
But I don't love you anymore

Drag The River - Medicine

A bottle a day
keeps the doctors away
or so my girlfriend says
So I take my medicine
and she gives me something
that word's just can't express

Chorus: She's cranky when she's undrunk
so sweet when she's wasted
When I quench my thirst with her waters
it's the sweetest I have ever tasted

As I lay down to sleep
she lays a bottle at my feet
knowing when I wake up
I'll be shaking
the sun comes through the window
she opens up the bottle
she feeds me my medicine again

Chorus

I can't stay clean long
I hope she is not angry anymore
she brings me happiness in a bottle
makes life easier to swallow
makes love easier to hold
so I've been told
can't stay clean long
hope she's not angry anymore

Any drum n' bass track is good to drink too. Specifically "In Tune With The Sound" by Roni Size feat. Rahzel from the Roots

I love to hear drunk folk try to sing "Super Sharp Shooter" by Ganja Kru.
good times :D

Any night of drinking, typical or otherwise, cannot be achieved in full grandeur without the aid of the proper tunage. I only have one tried and true standby that has never failed me. Tom Waits. Early Tom Waits. The Asylum recordings.

Muriel

...but I only get as far, as the next Whiskey Bar,
I buy another cheap cigar,
Muriel,
Muriel,
Hey Buddy, Gotta Light?

Bad Liver and a Broken Heart

I gotta bad liver and a broken heart,
yeah, I drank me a river since you tore me apart,
and I don't have a drinking problem,
'cept when I can't get a drink

Mr. Siegel

Willie's knocked out on a bottle of heat,
drivin' dangerous curves across the dirty sheets,
he says 'man you oughta see 'er, when the bitch is wound up,
man you oughta see 'er when the siren's on,

Fumbling with the Blues

The bartenders, they all know my name,
and they catch me when I'm pulling up lame,
I'm a pool shootin' shimmy sheister shakin' my head,
when I should be livin' clean instead,

Of course, there are the old standbys like Warm Beer, Cold Women and The Piano has been drinking

This music demands that you drink, otherwise you have no business listening to it.
