My Girl and Me Lyrics
At night you know that I will find you
It's been the same way for three years
I know every bar in this town
I'll just have to find the right one
I get in through the door and you look terribly engaged
I have a couple of drinks and pretend I haven't seen you
but sooner or later we'll be
the event of the evening 'cause
My girl and me we hang around in bars
and we're usually drunk but never too drunk
to fight like cats and dogs all night
My girl and me we hang around in bars
and we're usually drunk but never too drunk
to fight like cats and dogs all night
You'll say that you can do without me
and you have the right to be free
and on top of that you say that
you shouldn't be seen with me
I for my part point out that I'm overly embarrassed
by seeing how you're trying to impress a nice young man
who is far more sober than you
We're not at all nice 'cause
My girl and me we hang around in bars
and we're usually drunk but never too drunk
to fight like cats and dogs all night
My girl and me we hang around in bars
and we're usually drunk but never too drunk
to fight like cats and dogs all night
Wine is a mocker, strong drink is raging
and whomsoever is deceived thereby
is not wise
Proverbs, Chapter 20, Part 4: Warnings and instructions
Part 4: Warnings and instructions
and instructions
My girl and me we hang around in bars
and we're usually drunk but never too drunk
to fight like cats and dogs all night
My girl and me we hang around in bars
and we're usually drunk but never too drunk
to fight like cats and dogs all night
It's been the same way for three years
I know every bar in this town
I'll just have to find the right one
I get in through the door and you look terribly engaged
I have a couple of drinks and pretend I haven't seen you
but sooner or later we'll be
the event of the evening 'cause
and we're usually drunk but never too drunk
to fight like cats and dogs all night
and we're usually drunk but never too drunk
to fight like cats and dogs all night
and you have the right to be free
and on top of that you say that
you shouldn't be seen with me
by seeing how you're trying to impress a nice young man
who is far more sober than you
We're not at all nice 'cause
and we're usually drunk but never too drunk
to fight like cats and dogs all night
and we're usually drunk but never too drunk
to fight like cats and dogs all night
and whomsoever is deceived thereby
is not wise

I love this song, I remember it getting a lot of radio play in the UK circa 1988. I was late teens then and just liked the song. Later, in my late twenties I had a girlfriend whom I met on the local bar circuit. We had a fast, wild and thrilling affair but I soon realised that our entire relationship, as exciting and fun as it was, was based entirely around going out and getting pissed. I realised that she was a borderline alcoholic and it all imploded spectacularly in a storm of recriminations, infidelity and yes, you guessed it, alcohol. I heard this song one day on a mix CD I’d made for the car years before and it all suddenly became totally relatable.
