Song Description

Sassy contemporary country track about making every classic bad decision after a breakup. Self-aware female narrator drinks too much, texts her ex, and overshares with strangers - all while knowing better. Clever hook ('When you're drinkin' with a broken heart / Chaos feels like a good idea') and relatable humor with a hard-earned wisdom payoff. Perfect for artists who blend attitude with vulnerability.

Lyrics

Verse 1:
Saturday night and I'm dressed to kill time
I'm kinda made up and my head's full of cheap red wine
Told myself I'd stay in, binge on TV instead
But here I am downtown, talking to strangers 'bout the things he said

Chorus:
When you're drinkin' with a broken heart
Chaos feels like a good idea.
Text your friends. Call up his mama. tell everyone your whole ordeal.
When you're drinkin' with a broken heart
Every song's about you, and they just won't quit
When you're drinkin' (drinkin') with a broken heart.

Verse 2:
Bourbon makes me philosophical.
Tequila helps me write eloquent text.
Wine and I can make up times we never had.
And if I mix 'em all up, I know what he'll get.

Pre-Chorus:
The girl in the bathroom mirror says "Honey, why don't we go home"
But I've got big words to write, and he's got things he needs to know...

Chorus:
So I'm drinkin' with a broken heart
And chaos feels like a great idea.
I'll text him up. Call up his mama. I'll tell everyone the whole ordeal.
I'm drinkin' with a broken heart.
Every song's about me, and they just won't quit.
I'm still drinkin' (drinkin') with a broken heart (broken heart)

Bridge:
Tomorrow I'll be smarter
Tomorrow I'll be strong.
But tonight I'm just a country song
That goes on and on and on (and on and on)

Final Chorus:
When you're drinkin' with a broken heart
Chaos is not a good idea
Don't text him back. don't call up his mama. nobody cares about your ordeal.
When you're drinkin' with a broken heart
Every song's about you, every cowboy's him.
That neon sign keeps flashin "have one more"
And it's hard to know you'll win
When you're drinkin' (drinkin') with a broken heart.

Outro:
A Broken heart (a broken heart)
Drinkin with a broken heart (a broken heart)
A Broken heart
