drinkin' bone

well it's friday evening

six o'clock

and all my friends are twisting off

i'm at the house just turning on tv

and they all wonder why i've changed

how many times must i explain

it's basic honky-tonk anatomy

the drinkin' bone's connected to the party bone

the party bone's connected to the staying out all night long

and she won't think it's funny and i'll wind up all alone

and the lonely bone's connected to the drinkin' bone

hey two plus two is always four

and down is south and up is north

thirty-two degrees is freezing cold

you play with fire

you wind up burned

the early bird gets the worm

but the only thing you really need to know

is the drinkin' bone's connected to the party bone

the party bone's connected to the staying out all night long

and she won't think it's funny and i'll wind up all alone

and the lonely bone's connected to the drinkin' bone

yeah now sing it with me

let's make sure you know
