"Happy Drunk" lyrics

"Happy Drunk"

You wouldn't know it
But tequila used to be my thing
I'd put on a show
I was a table top dancin' queen
Had everybody goin' round for round
Drank it till the bar ran out
You wouldn't know it
But now it just makes me mean

I used to be a dive bar butterfly
Now I'm just a couple shots shy
Of the life of the party
Used to be out in the middle
Of a dance floor spinnin'
Now I'm sitting on a stool feelin' sorry
Used to be drinkin' for good fun
Now I'm just medicating with this buzz
Yeah, I'm just tryin' to be happy drunk

I thought a few all nighters would
Get me back to who I was back then
Now it's just a reminder
That the way it was ain't the way it's been
He left now the silver don't hit the same
He took the fun out of my drinkin' game
To feel that way again
Awh man, I'd give anything

To be a dive bar butterfly
Now I'm just a couple shots shy
Of the life of the party
Used to be out in the middle
Of a dance floor spinnin'
Now I'm sitting on a stool feelin' sorry
Used to be drinkin' for good fun
Now I'm just medicating with this buzz
Yeah I'm just tryin' to be happy drunk

I used to be a dive bar butterfly
Now I'm just a couple shots shy
Of the life of the party
Used to be out in the middle
Of a dance floor spinnin'
Now I'm a fool sittin' lookin' sorry
Used to be drinkin' for good fun
Now I'm just medicating with this buzz
Yeah I'm just tryin' to be happy
Yeah I'm just tryin' to be happy

No you wouldn't know it
But tequila used to be my thing
Now it just makes me mean
