Lyrics[]

[Verse 1]
If you're wondering where I've been
I've been living for the weekend
Serve it straight, matter of fact
Take no chase, I won't call back
Rather have the body of a nice wine
Than have somebody in the night time
Sorry kid, move along
Keep my game like my drinks: strong

[Pre Chorus]
'Cause I'm, 'cause I'm out of my head
But we are out of our minds

[Chorus]
I've been out getting gone
I've been drinking for too long
Get it down yeah, what you want
I've been drinking, I've been drinking
So let's up and pour another
As we're laughing at each other
'Cause we out getting gone
We've been drinking
We've been drinking for too long

[Post Chorus]
Whoa-oh
We've been drinking for too long
Oh-whoa, oh-whoa

[Verse 2]
Pour them neat around the rocks
Something good to give a body shock
Jack and Jim, G and T
You guys been so good to me
Chugging half of a bottle with a nice ass
While I check the bottom of a shot glass
'Cause sometimes, don't you think
Life's too short to order tall drinks?

[Pre Chorus]
'Cause I'm, 'cause I'm out of my head
But we are out of our minds

[Chorus]
I've been out getting gone
I've been drinking for too long
Get it down yeah, what you want
I've been drinking, I've been drinking
So let's up and pour another
As we're laughing at each other
'Cause we out getting gone
We've been drinking
We've been drinking for too long

[Post Chorus]
Whoa-oh
We've been drinking for too long
Oh-whoa, oh-whoa

[Bridge]
Eenie, Meenie, Henny
I guess that's one too many
I'm falling, said I'm falling
Boy, you're tryna bicker
But I prefer my liquor to darling
Sorry, darling

[Pre Chorus]
'Cause I'm, 'cause I'm out of my head
But we out of our minds

[Chorus]
I've been out getting gone
I've been drinking for too long
Get it down yeah, what you want
I've been drinking, I've been drinking
So let's up and pour another
As we're laughing at each other
'Cause we out getting gone
We've been drinking
We've been drinking for too long

[Post Chorus]
Whoa-oh
We've been drinking for too long
Oh-whoa, oh-whoa
