I drink alone, yeah, 
with nobody else 
I drink alone, yeah, 
with nobody else 
You know when I drink alone, 
I prefer to be by myself 
Every morning just before breakfast, 
I don't want no coffee or tea 
Just me and good buddy Wiser, 
that's all I ever need 
'Cause I drink alone, yeah, 
with nobody else 
Yeah, you know when I drink alone, 
I prefer to be by myself 
The other night I laid sleeping, 
and I woke from a terrible dream 
So I caught up my pal Jack Daniel's, 
and his partner Jimmy Beam 
And we drank alone, yeah, 
with nobody else 
Yeah, you know when I drink alone, 
I prefer to be by myself 
The other day I got invited to a party, 
but I stayed home instead 
Just me and my pal Johnny Walker, 
and his brothers Black and Red 
And we drank alone, yeah, 
with nobody else 
Yeah, you know when I drink alone, 
I prefer to be by myself 
My whole family done give up on me, 
and it makes me feel oh so bad 
The only one who will hang out with me, 
is my dear old granddad 
And we drink alone, yeah, 
with nobody else 
Yeah, you know when I drink alone, 
I prefer to be by myself
