lyrics

I DIDN’T MEAN TO GET DRUNK LAST NIGHT

I didn’t mean to get drunk last night, but I did.
I didn’t mean to say all them nasty things that I said.
Now it feels like a freight train’s running through my head
I didn’t mean to get drunk last night, but I did.

Well it was an important dinner party with your boss man
The next important step in you career development
Oh lord, but by six o’clock I was talking dirty
And making time with his wife
Now I’m gonna have to hear about that
For the rest of my life.

I didn’t mean to get drunk last night, but I did.
I didn’t mean to say all those nasty things that I said.
Now it feels like a freight train’s running through my head
I didn’t mean to get drunk last night, but I did.
(Come on now)

Well the more beer I drink
The more I get smarter
And I got pretty smart last night
And said some things to your mother
I said “we may live inside your house old girl,
But I’m a man you must be obey.”
Well, she knocked me so hard upside the head
Knocked me clear into yesterday.

I didn’t mean to get drunk last night, but I did.
I didn’t mean to say all them nasty things that I said.
Now it feels like a freight train running through my head
I didn’t mean to get drunk last night, but I did.


I didn’t mean to get drunk last night, but I did.
I didn’t mean to say all them nasty things that I said.
Now it feels like a freight train running through my head
I didn’t mean to get drunk last night, but I did.

Oh lord, I didn’t mean to get drunk.
Let’s do it again, I’ve got a case in the trunk.
I didn’t mean to get drunk last night, but I did.

about

The Highballers Washington D.C., D.C.

"Songs about hard-drinking, crime, sex, heartache and the seamier side of life comprise the core of The Highballers’ music. The band’s sweet savory harmonies meld flawlessly with the twang of Fender telecasters. The Highballers’ brand of country can’t be pigeon-holed into one type of sound; their music is rough and tumble and at the same time can be evocative and haunting."
