What Were You Drinking

I know it's hard, to understand
What happened last night, so listen my friend
The words came out, somethin' like this
If I see her new boyfriend, yeah I'm throwin' fists

And then sure enough, guess who walked in
You got up in his face, and started cussin' at him
No it wasn't pretty, you embarrassed yourself
You're lucky you're here, and not in a cell (and)

Courage from the bottle never helped a man win,
And Jack, Jim and Jose they ain't your real friends
I know how you feel and what you were thinkin',
But what were you drinkin'?

Just gimme one second, no it doesn't stop there
You knocked over a table, and you broke a good chair
Fightin' that fight, made you look like a kid,
Your ex was cryin', because what you did (and)

Courage from the bottle never helped a man win,
And Jack, Jim and Jose they ain't your real friends
I know how you feel and what you were thinkin',
But what were you drinkin'?

There's lots of people, that've been there too
With a hole in their heart, and a bottle of booze
When they get goin', their ship starts sinkin'
They'll wake up next mornin' sayin', what was I drinkin'?
