Friends Don't Let Friends

Alright
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)

I got a buddy livin' out in Jacksonville
In love with a woman with looks to kill
He called me outta the blue just the other night
Yeah, he was gonna put a diamond on her hand
Then he caught her runnin' 'round with another man
So I booked me a ticket for the early AM flight
That's right

You know friends don't let friends drink alone
Gotta have a little help to get that memory gone
If you're gonna make a bad decision
You shouldn't make it on your own
Yeah, friends don't let friends drink alone
No, they don't

Well, I got another buddy in Birmingham
Got cut loose by the old bossman
Said he's out the door, headed for the neon lights
Oh, he's gonna need someone to pick up the tab
Talk it out, maybe split a cab
Tell him everything's gonna be alright
Yeah, that's right

You know friends don't let friends drink alone
Ain't gonna let 'em sit around and listen to them old sad songs (them old sad songs)
If you're gonna make a bad decision
You shouldn't make it on your own
No, friends don't let friends drink alone
No, they don't

Hey, Darius
If you're goin' to the bar, will you get me one more?
I got you, brother
Oh, yeah
Alright, listen

If you need a wingman (if you need a wingman)
I can hold a cold can (I can hold a cold can)
I'll pick up the phone, man
Won't leave you hangin' out to dry
Buddy, I can split a twelve-pack (you know that's right)
I won't leave you by yourself, Jack (no, sir)
You know I got your back
And I know you got mine, yeah (woo)

You know friends don't let friends drink alone
Takes a couple good old boys to tie one home
Oh, and if you're gonna make a bad decision
You shouldn't make it on your own
No, friends don't let friends drink alone
Friends don't let friends (friends, friends)
Drink alone (woo)

No, they don't
Oh, no, they don't
You know they don't
Don't let friends drink alone
Drink alone
Dial my number, buddy, I'll pick up
I'll come help you catch that bus
'Cause friends don't let friends drink alone
Save that empty stool for me (for me)
I'll come runnin' in one, two, three (one, two, three)
'Cause friends don't let friends drink alone
