George Thorogood – I Drink Alone Lyrics 17 years ago
This song is about (obviously) drinking alone, and the various reasons/situations in which one would do so. Each of the "people" he is drinking with are bourbons, denoting his specific choice in drinks.

I disagree that he makes it sound like fun. The songs music may sound like uptempo blues/rock, but the lyrics specifically mention him drinking to start the day, because he had a nightmare, because he couldn't stand to be with other people, and because his family rejects him for some reason. All of those suggest a lack of happiness in his life.
