I Don't Need the Booze (To Get a Buzz On)

(Toni Dae - Joy Swinea)



Well, I've been known to tie one on

And honky tonk 'til half past three

But the party don't get started

'Til my baby pours her love on me.



She's a hundred proof, Lord she's smooth

She makes me moan all night long

So I don't need the booze

To get a buzz on.



I've tried it all from Tennessee Whiskey

To Ozark Mountain moonshine

But it's her sweet love that packs the punch

And keeps me higher than a Georgia pine.



My Southern Comfort don't come in a bottle

I get a double shot of love homegrown

So I don't need the booze

To get a buzz on.

My little country girl makes a-my head whirl

And my knees begin to shake

I can't walk no chalk line,

I ain't talking or thinking straight.



Yeah, I'm hooked on my baby's love

There ain't nothing in a jug this strong

So I don't need the booze

To get a buzz on.



I've tried it all from Tennessee Whiskey

To Ozark Mountain moonshine

But it's her sweet love that packs the punch

And keeps me higher than a Georgia pine.



My Southern Comfort don't come in a bottle

I get a double shot of love homegrown

So I don't need the booze

To get a buzz on.



I wear a Blue Ribbon grin every now and then

But I don't need that to get stoned

No, I don't need the booze

To get a buzz on.



No, I don't need the booze

To get a buzz on...
