No I ain’t been drinking

Boss, I don’t care what you say

I just look a little rough

‘Cause I work too much

But, I haven’t had a drink all day

 

Well, I’ve made up my mind

To leave trouble behind

And go off on my merry way

But I ain’t been drinking

Boss, I don’t care what you say

 

No, I ain’t been drinking

Girl, I don’t care what you say

I just lost my job, I ain’t done nothing wrong

And I haven’t had a drink all day

 

I shoulda known from the start

I oughta follow my heart

And go off on my separate way

No, I ain’t been drinking

Girl, I don’t care what you say

 

No, I ain’t been drinking

Officer, let me explain

I like to cruise along

With my turn signal on

At the end of a long, long day

 

Well, I should take your advice

And drink whiskey tonight

And drown all these blues away

But I ain’t been drinking

But I should be drinking                      

Gonna go out drinking

Gonna drown these blues away
