Drinking Alone
Produced by David Garcia and Carrie Underwood
Written by Carrie Underwood, David Garcia and Brett James
Let me make one thing clear
You can buy me a beer
But you ain’t taking me home
No pick-up lines
I came here tonight
To shed a few tears on my own
Sitting there across the room
I couldn’t help but notice you
Seem a little down on your love, too
Yeah, my heart might be breaking
But this seat ain’t taken
You got me thinking
We should be drinking alone, together
Drowning the pain is better
With somebody else who got problems
We ain’t gonna solve ‘em
But misery loves company
Tonight all I need is a stranger
Lips with a whiskey chaser
And a corner booth kiss
To make me forget that he’s gone
We should be drinking alone
We should be drinking alone, together
Don’t know what she did
To make you hurt like this
But I know just what to do
It starts with a bottle of good reposado
And ends with a shooter or two
Tomorrow when the sun comes up
Tonight’s the night that never was
Baby, just forget my name
Won’t be your one and only
But just ‘cause we’re lonely
Don’t mean that we should
We should be drinking alone
‘Cause drowning the pain is better
With somebody else who got problems
We ain’t gonna solve ‘em
But misery loves company
Tonight all I need is a stranger
Lips with a whiskey chaser
And a corner booth kiss
To make me forget that he’s gone
We should be drinking alone
I’ll pretend that I care
Baby, pull up a chair
We’ll stay here ‘till they make us go home
We should be drinking alone
Oh, we should be drinking alone, together
Drowning the pain is better
With somebody else who got problems
We ain’t gonna solve ‘em
But misery loves company
Tonight all I need is a stranger
Lips with a whiskey chaser
And a corner booth kiss
To make me forget that he’s gone
Oh, we should be drinking alone, together
We should be drinking alone
We should be drinking alone
