  • Work sucks, truck died, hot as hell outside, my A/C just broke
    The woman I love packed half of my stuff and she took off down road

    Where she went, I don't know
    But she's never comin' back
    My life feels like a joke
    But it hurts too much to laugh

    So I go
    To that little place where the good times always roll
    In the glow of the neon light where I know
    There's a new song I'll be singin'
    Before I leave, yeah, I believe in the power of positive drinkin'

    Beer one tastes just like a beer
    Beer two, a little bit better than one
    Beer three, beer four
    Yeah, that was pretty damn good so hand me one more
    Beer five and I'm comin' alive
    Beer six, man that went down quick
    Seven, eight, nine, I'm feelin' fine
    And by number ten life's good again, hey
    Yeah, that's the power of positive drinkin'

    Oh, where she went, I don't know
    But she's never comin' back
    My life feels like a joke
    But it hurts too much to laugh

    So I go
    To that little place where the good times always roll
    In the glow of the neon light where I know
    There's a new song I'll be singin'
    Before I leave, yeah, I believe
    In the power of positive drinkin'

    Beer one tastes just like a beer
    Beer two a little bit better than one
    Beer three, beer four
    Yeah, that was pretty damn good so hand me one more
    Beer five and I'm comin' alive
    Beer six, man that went down quick
    Seven, eight, nine, I'm feelin' fine
    And by number ten life's good again, hey
    That's the power of positive drinkin'

    Yeah, so I go
    To that little place where the good times always roll
    In the glow of the neon light where I know
    There's a new song I'll be singin'
    Before I leave, yeah, I believe
    In the power of positive drinkin'

    That's the power of positive drinkin' Writer/s: Charles Christopher Du Bois, Chris P. Janson, Mark Irwin Abramson
