[Verse 1] People say Im a quiet guy I stay within my shell I love my wife, and I like my job I try to do it well On Saturdays, Im Mr. Mom Solid as a rock Soccer games and little leaves A little fishing off the dock Thats who I am An ordinary man [Chorus] When I drink I am the life of the party Everybody tells me Im a real funny guy Then I drink I drink until its not so funny Theres pain and disappointment In everybodys eyes When I drink [Verse 2] Theres always a holiday A backyard barbecue Ill tell myself Im strong enough To just have one or two Then I think about the day my son Got in a fight at school Cause his best friend said his daddy said I was just a drunken fool I sat him down that night Said, Son, in a way theyre right [Chorus] Cause when I drink I am the life of the party Everybody tells me Im a real funny guy Then I drink I drink until its not so funny Theres pain and disappointment In everybodys eyes When I drink [Outro] People say Im a quiet guy I stay within my shell
