VERSE 1
D A7 D
He was sittin at the bar, sippin on a regular coke.
G D
We were drinkin and smokin and making him the butt of our jokes.
G D G
We all said man what happened to you? Why can't you just have a few?
D A7 D
He said I would if I could, but it's probably best that I don't.
CHORUS
D F#7
'Cause the more I drink, the more I drink,
G D
Then I'm the world's greatest lover and a dancin' machine.
A7
I get loud, I get proud and it gets worse
D F#7 G D
Well if I have one, I'll have thirteen, Now there ain't no in between
A7 D
'Cause the more I drink, hmm, the more I drink
VERSE 2
A couple of cold ones and somebody hands me a shot
Hell even bucktooth and bowlegged women start lookin' hot
And pretty soon I'm bummin' cigarettes and sweet talkin' some big brunette
Once I get on a roll, there ain't no tellin' where I'll stop
CHORUS
D F#7
'Cause the more I drink, the more I drink
G D
And I'm the world's greatest lover and a dancin' machine
D A7
I get loud, I get proud, and it gets worse
D F#7 G D
Yeah if I have one I'll have thirteen, now there ain't no in-between
D A7 D
'Cause the more I drink, the more I drink, the more I drink, yeah yeah
D F#7 G D A7
Mmm that's what I'm talkin' about
D F#7
Man if I have one, I'll have thirteen
G D
Then they can't get me off the kareokee machine
D A7 D G
The more I drink, the more I drink
D A7
Yeah the more I drink, the more I drink, the more I drink
