(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



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



We need to get to where we can't think of her

So tonight, we're the designated drinkers



Oh tonight, we're the designated drinkers
