Best Drinking Song?

[LewisJackson]

What, in your opinion, is the song while your plastered/shitfaced/completly gone/ etc.?

I need some music to download after a bad, bad day.

[Maddy McCall]

1. Youth Gone Wild==Skid Row

A good rebellious drinking song.

[LewisJackson]

2. Have it already

I love the song. Unfortunatly, it's more like a punch someone in the face song rather than a drunk song. I dunno, maybe that's just me.

Still a damn good song, however. Skid Row is so great.

[Clete]

3. Sea shantys like "What do you do with a drunken sailor"

I'm not much help am I. :-)

[Eat_The_Rich]

7. What do you do with a drunken sailor?

Shave his belly with a rusty razor.
or
keel haul him 'till he's sober.

[Clete]

23. I thought you had to throw him into the long boat till he's sober.

[corarose]

4. George Theorgood(?)

I can't think of the name of the song but it's about booze.

[madrchsod]

5. i think it`s

i drink alone...

[LewisJackson]

13. That is such a great song

I'm surprised I haven't gotten it yet. Good call.

[Kat45]

6. There are a couple of Thorogood booze songs:

"I Drink Alone" and his cover of "One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer."
Were you thinking of one of those?

[Kenneth ken]

9. GT

and the Destroyers have a lot of good drinking songs to get "destroyed" to.

[FDRrocks]

8. Irish Drinking Song - Dropkick Murphys

Drink and drink and drink and drink and drink and fight! Drink and drink and drink and drink and drink and drink and fight!

[LewisJackson]

16. that's unfair

all the dropkicks songs are great drinking songs.....they put at least ten on every album =)

[GOPisEvil]

10. You Never Even Call Me By My Name

David Allan Coe

[ronzo]

11. Kind of Blue

Miles. Get Trashed. Yes.

ronzo

[Kat45]

12. The Doors' "Roadhouse Blues" is a good one. Also,

Buckcherry"s "Whiskey in the Morning",

[Eat_The_Rich]

17. Doors

My favorite rock lyric.
I wolk up this morning and I got myself a beer. The future is uncertain and the end is always near (let it roll baby roll).

[Kat45]

19. Yeah. I used to love driving to that one too.

[Eat_The_Rich]

22. Ahh

Another Zappa fan.
"It looks just like a Telefunken U47"

[HEyHEY]

14. Barbra ann - the beach boys

[lynndew2]

15. Margaritaville

MARGARITAVILLE
Jimmy Buffett

Nibbling on sponge cake, watching the sun bake,
All of those tourists covered with oil,
Strumming my six string, on my front porch swing,
Smell those shrimp, they're beginning to boil.

CHORUS:
Wasting away again in Margaritaville,
Searching for my last shaker of salt,
Some people claim that there's a woman to blame,
But I know it's nobody's fault.

Don't know the reason that I stayed here all season,
With nothing to show but this brand new tattoo,
But it's a real beauty, a Mexican cutie,
How it got here I haven't a clue.

(CHORUS)

Cut my heel, had to cruise on back home,
But there's booze in the blender,
And soon it will render,
That frozen concoction that helps me hang on.

(CHORUS)

Yes, some people claim that there's a woman to blame,
And I know it's my own damn fault.

[Semi_subversive]

28. Another great Buffet drinking song is

Why don't we get drunk and screw.

[LewisJackson]

29. Actually....

That was the third song I downloaded on my comp....after comforatbly numb and some techno that my roommate told me to get that really sucked.

Still one of the all-time favs.

[madrchsod]

18. right now i`m listening to

"cherry red wine" by luther allison-live from chicago blues fest...but i don`t have anything to drink. "bad love" is the song that does it for me..same album.."i ask here why she`s lying and she broke right down and started crying"...

[JohnKleeb]

20. That one song in Gangs of New York

Its called like New York Girls or something, I get real tempted to :beer: whenever I hear it but alas no fake id.

[Snow]

21. Oh, man, there's nothing like Korean drinking songs,

especially when bellowed by inebriated Peace Corps volunteers, their friends, and other habitues of that particular bar of the moment. The really great one that comes to mind is the rousing "Milyang Arirang" which offers not only bellowing but some great falsetto yips, and you then follow that with the tear-jerking "Mokpo'a Noonmool" - "Tears for Mokpo" ~sigh~ those were the days. Thank gods they didn't last but a coupla years or I never woulda. Lasted, that is.

[alphafemale]

24. This one....

[Eat_The_Rich]

25. Oh won't you blow me...

a little kiss, my darling.
That song always turned my crank!

[Archae]

26. "Wasn't That A Party"

Done by the Irish Rovers, no less!
(Yes, same idiots most notorious for that unicorn song.)

HONKY TONK HARDWOOD FLOOR, Johnny Horton
SITTIN' AND THINKIN', Charlie Rich
THERE STANDS THE GLASS, Webb Pierce

[Journeyman]

31. "The Moonshiner" -- Traditional Irish Song. . .

I'm a rambler, I'm a gambler, I'm a long way from home
And if you don't mind me, then leave me alone.
I'll eat when I'm hungry, I'll drink when I'm dry,
If the moonshine don't kill me I'll drink til I die.

And there's more. . .

[Friar]

42. I'll go to some hollow

in this country
ten gallons of wash
I can go on a spree
No wimmin to follow
and the world is all mine
and i love none so well
as I live the Moonshine

:silly:

[HuckleB]

32. Well I gotta get drunk, Whiskey River, Yesterday's Wine...

Bloody Mary Morning... All by Willie Nelson, and all sure to do the trick.

Kingston Trio

Scotch & soda, mud in your eye.
Baby do I feel high, oh me oh my.
Dry Martini, jigger of gin.
Oh what a spell you've got me in, oh my.
Do I feel higher than a kite can fly?
Give me lovin', baby,
I feel high.

And all that from memory.
<bows>

[xJlM]

38. One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer

George Thourogood and the Destroyers, of course (although I don't they did the original).

[demgurl]

39. Go For Soda

By Kim Mitchell

Might as well go for a soda nobody hurts and nobody cries
Might as well go for a soda nobody drowns and nobody dies
So I'm in one of my blue moods
You want to have it your way and I want it mine
All this debating going 'round in a blue mood makes me thirsty for love
Might as well....

Might as well go for a soda nobody hurts and nobody cries
Might as well go for a soda nobody drowns and nobody dies

Life seems to be a bomb inside of your head
Well, the bomb in my head is love
All this debating going 'round in a blue mood makes me thirsty for love
Might as well....

Might as well go for a soda nobody hurts and nobody cries
Might as well go for a soda nobody drowns and nobody dies
Might as well go for a soda it's better than slander
It's better than lies
Might as well go for a soda

Might as well go for a soda
Oh yeah, nobody hurts nobody cries
Might as well go for a soda
Oh yeah, nobody drowns, and nobody dies
Might as well go for a soda
It's better than slander, it's better than lies
Might as well go for a soda

[NightTrain]

40. The Fireballs, "Bottle of Wine"

Let me go home and start over!

let me go home and start over

[kodi]

41. free bird or sweet home alabama with a beer in your paw is heaven

[dbt]

44. Don't know the title of this Pogues tune, but the chorus goes:

Fuck everything, shut up and drink!
I don't wanna hear your shit tonight
And I don't wanna think!


Then came this fragment from another tune:

There was pints a Guinness,
Lashins a kisses,
I almost loved you,
My Amsterdam mistress.

Pints all around!
:beer:
