Before I even sat down

The bartender knew what to pour

And after a few rounds

I’ll forget what I came here for

Well maybe I drop by too much

But I need something to erase your touch

And this beats drinking alone Jack and flat coke

Crying on the kitchen floor

It beats memories of you loving me

And wishing you were at my door

I can’t change you but the whiskey rearranges

How that stranger’s wearing your cologne

And this beats drinking alone

Before I еven got his name

He was paying for my tab

And I know I’m to blamе

But I won’t get in his cab

I’m comfortable on this stool

The one you used to sit right next to

Cause this beats drinking alone Jack and flat coke

Crying on the kitchen floor

It beats memories of you loving me

And wishing you were at my door

And I can’t change you but the whiskey rearranges

How I can’t call you cause I can’t find my phone

And this beats drinking alone

Hey, everybody says since you left I've got a problem

But the only one I got is that my bottle's at the bottom

And I replay you here saying "smoke 'em if you got 'em"

And I watch it disappear when she starts last call

Woah

Cause this beats drinking alone Jack and flat coke

Crying on the kitchen floor

It beats memories of you loving me

And wishing you were at my door

And I can’t change you but the whiskey rearranges

I won’t be as sad when I get back to an empty home

Cause this beats drinking alone

At least I'm not Drinking Alone
