Just One Drink Lyrics

You drink water, I drink gasoline
One of us is happy, one of us is mean
I love you, but honey, why don’t you love me?
Yeah, well, I love you, but honey, why don’t you love me?

Well, just one drink gets me closer
Just one drink, it rolls you over
But then I start to think you’re growin' colder
The older and older I am

Well, I watch TV, you watch the ceilin'
And when you turn over, I get a funny feelin'

I should grab my rock and rye and pop the top until my baby comes clean
Yeah, I should grab my rock and rye and pop the top until my baby comes clean


Well, just one sip and then you showed me
You bust your lip on wine spodie-odie
So, come on, take a trip if you wanna know me
Put a fork in the road with me
Alright

Just one drink, it gets me closer
Just one drink, it rolls you over
Then I start to think you’re growin' colder
The older and older I am
You drink water and I drink gasoline
One of us is happy, the other one is mean
I love you, but honey, why don’t you love me?
Yeah, well, I love you, honey, why don’t you love me?

Oh
Oh, well, I love you, but honey, why don’t you love me?
Oh

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
