Lyrics
Walking the floor, feet off the ground
most of my friends have stopped coming around
She left like she promised when our youngest was grown
Now I'm free and able to be drinking alone
Drinking alone was'nt always this way
The life of the party's what they used to say
Now I lock all the doors I don't answer the phone
Funny things happen when you're Drinking Alone
The T.V.'s turned up, the shades are pulled down
It helps to keep out the noise of this town
Re-runs of Lost Weelend, Ray really hit's home
Hiding those bottles and Drinking Alone
Drinking Alone was'nt always this way
The life of the party's what they used to say
Now little green men whisper they've always known
That I'd wind up wasted and Drinking Alone
