Sure I've heard the rumors, I know you've been hurt before
and I understand you don't want girls like me hanging 'round your door
but I don't believe the song you're singing
when you're telling me you're all done with love
Baby we're already drinking, so we might as well get drunk
It's the truth I've been accused of running round and picking fights
I've had some growing up to do but I think I'm ready to play nice
and if the ship is really sinking
what's the use in waiting til it's sunk?
Baby we're already drinking, so we might as well get drunk
Everybody's gonna pick their poison
we've all got something we could lose
and if I'm gonna live with my choices I expect that I'll regret at least a few
So while the barroom floor is spinning
beneath the neon lights above
Baby we're already drinking, so let's get drunk
I wanna feel your arms around me I want your kisses on my neck
and I don't care much if tomorrow finds me wishing I was dead
my ears are already ringing
the smoke's already filled my lungs
and Baby we're already drinking so we might as well get drunk
