[Verse 1]

Well it's Friday evening, six o'clock

And all my friends are twisting off

I'm at the house just turning on TV

Well they all wonder why I've changed

How many times must I explain

It's basic honky-tonk anatomy

[Chorus]

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

[Verse 2]

Hey two plus two is always four

And down is south and up is north

And 32 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

[Chorus]

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

[Bridge]

Yeah now sing it with me

Let's make sure you know

[Chorus]

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'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
