We drink because we're from the country
We drink because we're from the city
We drink because we're still young
We drink because we're too old
We drink because our parents abandoned us
We drink because our parents were strict with us
We drink when our children are born
We drink when our dog dies
We drink Blood Marys at breakfast
We drink martinis at lunch
We drink wine with dinner
And we have a scotch on the rocks to cap off the night
We need no rhyme or reason,
We rarely even need a glass,
We barely even need to be awake
If there's a drink, then a drink we'll take
