Too Drunk...

Buckcherry

About Too Drunk...

"Too Drunk..." is the eleventh single by Buckcherry and their first from their fourth album Black Butterfly. The song is about a man drinking all night and all day, and having the girl of his desire walk away because he's "too drunk to fuck". The song was apparently leaked by the band's manager in 2008, yet the band later claimed that the track was pirated. The song was removed from re-releases and clean versions of the album and replaced by their cover of "Highway Star" from Deep Purple that was used by NASCAR on TNT as its 2009 theme song.

I hit the bottle in the morning in the summer time
I quit my job cause it gets in the way
I find a party by the ocean buy the cheapest wine,
Tell my friends to come and waste the day.

I got a dime bag, corduroys, colored sleeves,
And a bindle with some LSD.
Now I'm just looking for a girl to meet to help me forget my name.

I could spend my lifetime getting high,
Never wanna live in suit and tie.
Most of us are just living a lie,
Drunk getting fucked up every night.

I'm getting drunk all night I'm getting drunk all day
I'm getting drunk all night I'm sorry but I have to say,
I'm too drunk to f*ck.

Now the party was jumping and the girls were fine with the lipstick summer glaze.
I got so many women coming after me I put some pussy on layaway.
I was smoked out, tore up, drunk as f*ck,
And I wouldn't wanna change a thing.
Young and dumb and full of cum with a sugar loaded candy cane.

I could spend my lifetime getting high.
Never wanna live in suit and tie.
Most of us are just living a lie,
Drink getting fucked up every night.

I'm getting drunk all night I'm getting drunk all day
I'm getting drunk all night I'm getting drunk all day
I'm getting drunk all night I'm getting drunk all day
I'm getting drunk all night,
I'm sorry but I have to say.
I'm too drunk to f*ck you!
Yeah I'm too drunk to f*ck you (guitar plays for a bit).

I can't eat cant sleep and I'm bored as f*ck and the girl I want just walked away.
She just found out I'm too drunk to f*ck,
Looks like I'm not getting laid.
I could spend my lifetime getting high,
Never wanna live in suit and tie.
Most of us are just living a lie,
Drunk getting fucked up every night.

I'm getting drunk all night I'm getting drunk all day
I'm getting drunk all night I'm getting drunk all day
I'm getting drunk all night I'm getting drunk all day
I'm getting drunk all night.
I'm sorry but I have to say,
I'm too drunk to f**k you! [repeat: x3]
