I heard it on the radio, the 6 o'clock news
Don't you be driven when you get on the booze
The sheriff's on the TV waving his hand
We're really cracking down boy you better understand
CHORUS
When you get on the whiskey
When you get on the whiskey
When you get on the whiskey
You better let someone else drive
I started drinkin' on Friday and by Sunday night
Had me blowing in a tube charged with DUI
Cuffed, booked and thrown in a cell
Try to sober up, just telling myself
REPEAT CHORUS
Forty-eight hours is a long time to k**
In a room full of drunks surrounded by steel
Hell is all they serve in this here metro bar
Don't be drinkin' and drivin' in a car
REPEAT CHORUS 3 TIMES
When you get on the whiskey
Let some other fool drive
