I sobered up in houston in the bed of my pickup truck
My head was hangin' so heavy i could hardly hold it up
I got to thinkin' 'bout sweet little woman i left all alone
And that's when i started rollin', drinkin' my way back home.

Drinkin' my way back home
Listenin' to a honky tonk song
I hope the devil in my soul don't steer me wrong
'cause i'm drinkin' my way back home.

I can feel that texas sundown on this redneck of mine
Everytime i pop a top, i'm getting' closer to the arkansas line
I left a trail of lone star beers from here to san antone
So baby here i come, don't worry, drinkin' my way back home.

Drinkin' my way back home
Listenin' to a honky tonk song
I hope the devil in my soul don't steer me wrong
'cause i'm drinkin' my way back home.
