When I Drink Beer Songtext
von Mike Ryan

When I drink beer I know what happens
I′ve seen it happen a hundred times before
I tell myself I'll just have a couple
And I′ll have a couple and a couple more

By that 5th one I'm holding my phone
Looking through pictures of me and you
Then I sit there and stare at your number
Thinking I shouldn't but I always do

Ooohhh, you don′t always answer
Oohh it′s better if you don't
′Cause ooohh I can just keep drinking
Crawl in a cab and head back home


When you answer it gets messed up
'Cause you get dressed up and meet me here
I know it′s only 'cause you′re lonely
But that don't matter when I drink beer

Ooohhh layin' there beside you
Ooohh I know it′s gonna hurt
′Cause ooohh there ain't nothing better

Than holding you but there ain′t nothing worse
When I wake up and that bed is empty
That pain will hit me 'cause you ain′t there
I still want you and I can't have you

And if I can′t have you, I just want a beer
Right now, I'm thirsty for a cold one
As much as I want one, I'm steering clear
′Cause I′m still hurting from the last time
And i'ts been a long time since I drank beer

So I′ll take water or maybe Coca-Cola
'Cause I know what happens when I drink beer
