"Over Drinking" lyrics

"Over Drinking"

No more propped on a barstool, tear in my beer
Drowning my sorrows, wishing you were right here
No more 80-proof bourbon to get you off my mind
Ain't why I'm sitting here sipping one tonight

Yeah, I'm over drinking over you
I'm done with bottles or chasing the blues
I still go out with the boys and knock back a few
But I'm over drinking over you
Yeah, I'm over drinking over you

No more flipping through pictures in the corner on my phone
No more dialing your number in the dark all alone
If I'm out at a bar and I've tied one on
I'm drunk 'cause I'm happy, not drunk 'cause you're gone

I'm over drinking over you
I'm done with bottles or chasing the blues
I still go out with the boys and knock back a few
But I'm over drinking over you
Yeah, I'm over drinking over you

I ain't on the wagon
These wheels are still turning
But I'm tired of you draggin' my heart
Through the dirt and the hurt

I'm over drinking over you
I'm done with bottles or chasing the blues
I still go out with the boys and knock back a few
But I'm over drinking over you
Yeah, I'm over drinking over you (over you)
Over you (over you)
I'm over drinking over you
I still go out with the boys and knock back a few
But I'm over drinking over you

"Over Drinking" is the second single off of the band's ninth album, "Nightfall". The song was released on the 8th of September 2019.
This song was written partly while the band was touring because they really liked Jesse Frasure's demo of it and wanted to have the song on their new album. Karen Fairchild told Times Free Press, "I think it's the fastest we've ever heard a song, turned around and cut it." The song was produced by the band themselves.
