One Bourbon , one scotch , one beer George Thorogood, Five o’clock somewhere, Margaritaville Buffet, Whiskey river Willie Nelson, Hank Williams jr All my rowdy friends have settled down. A few newer country tunes are Drinking problem by Midland, Bottoms up by Brantley Gilbert, and Designated drinker by Alan Jackson. What say you?

“I Had But Fifty Cents”, first recorded in the 1920s by Riley Puckett, but it is older than that. Here is my favorite version, by R. Crumb and His Cheap Suit Serenaders. (Crumb is best known for his comic books.) The drink references are in the second verse. https://youtu.be/VTPYMCqWOKU

My brother wrote a song, he titled it Whiskey ain’t the answer, but it keeps the question off your mind

Awesome. Don’t forget the Irish song “Whiskey in the jar” . The Metallica version is fantastic. Can’t believe I didn’t mention that before now . Thanks for the brain jog:coolsmiley:

Also, Thin Lizzy does a righteous rendition of Whiskey In The Jar.

ZZ TOP . . .

Driving While Blind

When you're driving down the highway at night
And you're feelin' that wild turkey's bite
Don't give Johnny Walker a ride
'Cause Jack Black is right by your side
You might get taken to the jailhouse and find
You've been arrested for driving while blind
Now just the other night with nothin' to do
We broke a case of proof 102
And started itchin' for that wonderful feel
Of rollin' in an automobile
You could say we was out of our mind
And let me tell you we were flyin' while blind
Then they had us up against the wall
Hey it's only blood grain alcohol
And there ain't no cause for alarm
We ain't out to do nobody no harm
How could anyone be so unkind
To arrest a man for drivin' while blind
