Alcohol


Brad Paisley at the Grand Ole Opry performing his hit "Alcohol," sung from the libation's perspective.

As with darn near all of Paisley's songs, the lyrics are witty, tell a story and bring a smile to the listener's face.

Just some of the reasons why I find myself enjoying country music more and more.

Keep reading for the lyrics to "Alcohol."

I Can Make Anybody Pretty
I Can Make You Believe Any Lie
I Can Make You Pick A Fight
With Somebody Twice Your Size

I Been Known To Cause A Few Break Ups
I Been Known To Cause A Few Births
I Can Make You New Friends
Or Get You Fired From Work

[1st Chorus]
And Since The Day I Left Milwaukee
Lynchburg And Bordeaux France
Been Making The Bars Lots Of Big Money
And Helping White People Dance
I Got You In Trouble In High School
But College, Now That Was A Ball
You Had Some Of The Best Times
You'll Never Remember With Me
Alcohol
Alcohol

I Got Blamed At Your Wedding Reception
For Your Best Man's Embarrassing Speech
And Also For Those
Naked Pictures Of You At The Beach

I've Influenced Kings And World Leaders
I Helped Hemmingway Write Like He Did
And I'll Bet You A Drink Or Two That I Can Make You
Put That Lampshade On Your Head

[2nd Chorus]
'cause Since The Day I Left Milwaukee
Lynchburg And Bordeaux France
Been Making A Fool Out Of Folks Just Like You
And Helping White People Dance
I'm Medicine And I Am Poison
I Can Help You Up Or Make You Fall
You Had Some Of The Best Times
You'll Never Remember With Me
Alcohol
Alcohol
