Mmm yeah Mmm Well since we been done I've been trying to un-fall apart And I've been thinking that some neon lights Would be a real good start Well I called a couple friends But they all say they're staying in So I guess i'm going out on my own I might be heart broke But that don't mean that i'm gonna stay home, yeah I can buy my own drinks I can pay my own tab At the end of the night when they cut on all the lights I can call my own cab I can drop my own change in the jukebox I can dance all by myself 'Til I can stop thinkin' 'bout drinkin' 'bout him I don't need nobody else Yeah I can buy my own drinks (Tonight, tonight, tonight) Yeah I can buy my own drinks (Tonight, tonight, tonight) I found myself a dive The type he would never walk in Then a guy at the bar sees an empty drink in my hand I said sweet of you to ask if you could fill my glass But I'm gonna have to pass this time Me and myself, well we're doing just fine I can buy my own drinks I can pay my own tab And at the end of the night when they cut on all the lights I can call my own cab I can drop my own change in the jukebox I can dance all by myself 'Til I can stop thinkin' 'bout drinkin' 'bout him I don't need nobody else Yeah I can buy my own drinks (Tonight, tonight, tonight) Yeah I can buy my own drinks (Tonight, tonight, tonight) I can walk my own self to the front door I can take my own self to bed I can medicate my own headache I can be my own boyfriend I can buy my own drinks I can pay my own tab At the end of the night when they cut on all the lights I can call my own cab I can drop my own change in the jukebox I can dance all by myself 'Til I can stop thinkin' 'bout drinkin' 'bout him I don't need nobody else Yeah I can buy my own drinks (Tonight, tonight, tonight) Yeah I can buy my own drinks (Tonight, tonight, tonight) I can drop my own change in the jukebox I can dance all by myself (tonight, tonight, tonight)
