A5         A#5         B5             A5  
I say when I drink what I think when I'm sober 
   A5         A#5       B5            A5 
It loosens my tongue and makes me feel bolder 
A5  A#5       B5    A5  A5      A#5   B5       A5 
    I'm in the mo-o-o-od    to do a little drinking tonight 
A5         A#5 B5            A5 
Like it or not, this is on my mind 
        A5       A#5          B5           A5 
I could sit here silent or get drunk and confide 
  A5      A#5   B5          A5            A5  A#5  B5   A5 
Barkeepe another round and I can't keep it inside  

Spoken by Roger: 
Excuse Miss, could I buy you a cocktail? 
You're so pretty and I just love the way that you...hey 
Are those real? Huh? Oh, no I mean your eyes, of course 
They're so beautiful and hey, where you going? 

Chorus 
 
Spoken by Radney: 
Roger, there are existential, physical and spiritual reasons 
Why man cannot live by bread alone 
It's not a simple thing in life 
It's very complex, it takes a long time and it's excellent 
What is it, Radney? 
Brisket and beer 
 
Chorus 
 
Instrumental 
 
Spoken by Roger: 
Now a friend of mine that drinks an alarming amount 
Tells me it's not what goes in a man's mouth that defiles him but rather what comes out 
So as I sit her tonight, I worry not about what I'm drinking 
But rather how much I'm speaking ?cause it seems every time 
 
Chorus (Both)
