lyrics

I TAKE PRIDE IN MY DRINKING

Well I pulled up to that party, ya’ll
Already blowing 2.0
Well, I shouted to the crowd, lord
So everybody’d know

I’m drinking brown liquor
I shouted to the crowd
It’s about to get ugly, ya’ll
It’s about to get loud
Because I take pride in my drinking

Yes, I take pride in my drinking
Come on baby, do a shot with me

Ah, one look at my bloodshot eyes
I see that look I recognize
Girl, I know just what you’re thinking
I take pride in my drinking

Now hey there good looking
Won’t you come on home with me?
Them earrings would sure look nice
Up on my bathroom sink.

I’ve been to every honky tonk
From here to Baltimore
I’ve butted up to every barstool
Fell down on every floor
Cause I take pride in my drinkin’

Yes, I take pride in my drinking
Come on baby, do a shot with me

Well one look at my bloodshot eyes
I see that look I recognize
Girl, I know what just you’re thinking
Yes, I take pride in my drinking

Well one look at my bloodshot eyes
I see that look I recognize
Girl, I know what you’re thinking
Yes, I take pride in my drinking
Yes, I take pride in my drinking

about

The Highballers image

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."
