Designated Drinker

(Alan Jackson)



Here's my keys, I want you to take 'em

I think I'm gonna need you to get back home

Hold on to my hat, I don't wanna lose it

I couldn't stand for something else to be gone

I'm sure you know the reason I'm here cryin'

I think you'll understand why



Tonight, I'm the designated drinker

I just lost the one that wrapped me around her finger

I need to get to where I can't think of her

So tonight, I'm the designated drinker



I came here to get you to help me

I need a friend to see me through

I hated to call, I knew you wouldn't mind at all

I know you know I'd do the same for you

I'm not the kind that likes to drown my sorrow

I may hate myself tomorrow

Oh but
