Drunker Than Me

Well, lately I’ve been noticin’ a gradual escalation in your inability to handle your libation. Go zero to sixty, when you get on the whiskey. Well, used to be a glass of wine and you’d be fine all evenin’. Now I’m the one who says we’re done and tells us when we’re leavin’. Well, I miss the way that it was. Can’t even catch a good buzz
(Chorus)
‘Cause I keep worryin’ about who’s drivin’ home, who’s got the keys, who’s got the phone, who’ll pay the bill, call a cab. I don’t mean to make you mad but I don’t want that responsibility. And I can’t be with a woman, baby who gets drunker than me.
I’d never thought it’d come to this when I said, have another. ‘Cause baby, you’ve turned into me and I became my mother. Well, here’s what I’m thinkin’. You’re interferin’ with my drinkin’. I think I have an answer to our present situation. ‘Cause you and me out on the town’s got built-in limitations. So, let me make this clear. Hey, I’m the one who’s drinkin’ here.
(Repeat Chorus)
(Bridge)
I ain’t tryin’ to ruin your good time but I damn sure ain’t lettin’ yours ruin mine.
You ain’t gonna ruin my good time, baby
(Repeat Chorus)
No, I can’t be with a woman, baby who gets drunker than me.
