I got loaded last night on a bottle of gin
And I had a fight with my best girlfriend
But when I'm drinkin', I am nobody's friend
Please, baby, wait for me until they let me out again

I know the same thing has happened before
And ev'ry time it does, I hate it more and more
But when I'm drinkin', I am nobody's friend
Please, baby, wait for me until they let me out again

Spent a whole lot of a time
Sittin' and thinkin'
Sittin' and just thinkin' 'bout you
If I didn't spend so much time
Sittin' and drinkin'
We'd still have the love that we once knew

Oh, I won't promise, that it won't happen again
But I can promise, it'll be a long, long time 'til then
'Cause when I'm drinkin', I am nobody's friend
Please, baby, wait for me until they let me out again
Please, baby, wait for me until they let me out aga
