Drinkin' Smokin' Cheatin'
Love's High, Nerves Low: A Song's Intoxicating Confessions
Lyrics
I ain't been drinkin', but if I was drinkin'
Expressing abstinence from drinking at the moment.
I think I'd be drinkin' bourbon
Hypothetically considering drinking bourbon if currently drinking.
And right now you'd be a blur
Imagining the blurred effect alcohol would have on perception.
And I wouldn't hear a word
Anticipating impaired hearing due to being drunk.
'Cause I'd be good and drunk
Describing being happily intoxicated as "good and drunk."
That's for certain
Reinforcing the certainty of becoming drunk if drinking.
I ain't been smokin', but if I was smokin'
Claiming current abstinence from smoking.
I know I'd be smokin' weed
Considering smoking weed if engaging in smoking.
When you blow all our money
Imagining a humorous response to partner spending money on weed.
I'd laugh, it'd be funny
Expressing laughter and amusement in the hypothetical scenario.
'Cause high as a kite is where I'd be
Envisioning a carefree, euphoric state while high.
I love you, baby
Affirming love for the partner.
But sometimes, baby
Acknowledging challenges in the relationship.
You dance on my last nerve
Describing partner's actions as irritating.
And I get an insane kind of urge
Feeling a strong, irrational impulse in response to irritation.
I ain't been cheatin', but if I was cheatin'
Asserting current fidelity and faithfulness.
That's right I'd be cheatin' on you
Hypothetically admitting to cheating if engaging in infidelity.
I am just daydreaming
Stating the act of imagining cheating without actually doing it.
Thank God I ain't been cheatin'
Expressing relief for not actually cheating.
'Cause if I was I'd be losing you
Acknowledging potential loss of the partner if cheating occurred.
I ain't been drinkin', smokin' or cheatin'
Reiterating abstinence from drinking, smoking, or cheating.
'Cause if I was, I'd be losing you
Highlighting the consequence of losing the partner if engaging in those behaviors.
