Drinking Alone

Drinking alone, lucky Number 7 in my red Solo

Only sixteen and headed down a road that I don't wanna go

Drinking this liquor and smoking this weed in the Oklahoma cold

Old bar rooms, fake IDs, and living life alone

Got a bad crowd I run around with that my mom warned me about

It's hard for her to know about my life when I'm never at the house

I know God's watching, and I feel my life has really let Him down

Pops always said, "No matter the hurt, don't let your hat frown"

I'll sit in this dark room just drinking alone

Nothing but some Jack and Merle on the radio

I've gotta find a way out of this empty hole

But I live in the present, so I'm drinking alone

Pounding headache and then another drink to make the pain go away

I'm a cowboy, gotten used to ladies begging me to stay

But I work all day, so I jump in the Ford and slowly drive away

Meet another girl at the bar just to give me a place to stay

Yeah, I'll sit in this dark room just drinking alone

Nothing but some 'shine and Zach Bryan on the radio

I've gotta find a way out of this empty hole

But I'll do that tomorrow 'cause I'm drinking alone

Wake up in the back of a speeding ambulance with my mom by my side

Watching my life fade away, I think I'm about to flatline

Mama telling me, screaming and crying, she can't watch me go

Last words to Mama was, "I was in the dark just drinking alone"
