Drinking Alone

Drinking alone, 'lucky number 7' in my red solo
Only 16, and headed down a road that I don't wanna go
Drinking this liquor and smoking this weed in the Oklahoma cold
Whole bar rounds, fake IDs, and living life alone

Got a bad crowd to run around with that my mom warned me about
It's hard for her to know about my life when I'm never at the house
I know God's watching, I feel my life has really let him down
Pops always said, "No matter the hurt, don't let your hat frown"

I sit in this dark room just drinking alone
Nothing but some Jack and Merle on the radio
I've gotta find a way out of this empty home
But I live in the present, so I'm drinking alone

Pounding headache and then another drink to make the pain go away
I'm a cowboy, gotten used to ladies begging me to stay
But I work all day, so I jump in the Ford and slowly drive away
Meet another girl at the bar just to give me a place to stay

Yeah, I sit in this dark room just drinking alone
Nothing but some shine and Zac Brown on the radio
I've gotta find a way out of this empty home
But I'll do that tomorrow 'cause I'm drinking alone

Wake up in the back of a speeding ambulance with my mom by my side
Watching my life fade away, I think I'm about to flat line
Mama telling me, screaming, and crying she can't watch me go
Last words to mama was "I was in the dark just drinking alone"
