Thirsty

Bartender put a little whiskey in my water

Looks like it's gonna be another all nighter

Hope that barrel ain't got no bottom

Gonna keep drinkin' as long as you got 'em

I been workin' all week out in the heat

I got a cotton mouth I need to drown out



Dehydration leads to a lot of libation

Gets you good vibrations, starts up a celebration

This inebriation sure is gonna hurt me

But every now and then you just get a little thirsty



Little Miss Prissy's sippin' martinis

Boys on the bar stools shootin' down whiskey

Cowboy's chuggin' on an ice cold beer

The country boys got a jar of somethin' clear

Some girl and her mom got a Jaager Bomb

They just dropped it on me now I can't see



Dehydration leads to a lot of libation

Gets you good vibrations, starts up a celebration

This inebriation sure is gonna hurt me

But you know every now and then you just get pretty thirsty



Alright y'all ready?

Set 'em up, Joe

Ready, aim

Drink, drink, drink, drink, drink



Dehydration leads to a lot of libation

Gets you good vibrations, starts up a celebration

This inebriation sure is gonna hurt me

But every now and then you just get a little thirsty

Every now and then you just get a little thirsty



Bartender put a little whiskey in my water

Looks like it's gonna be another all nighter

Hope that barrel ain't got no bottom
