It takes a whole lot of liquor

To like her

Thats why I drink all the time

It takes a whole lot of liquor

To like her

But when I'm liquored up

I like her just fine



She wants to tell me where to go

Tell me what to do

Tell me what to eat

And how loud I can chew

She even wants to tell me

What thoughts I oughta think

It used to drive me crazy

Till it drove me to drink



It takes a whole lot of liquor

To like her

Thats why I drink all the time

It takes a whole lot of liquor

To like her

But when I'm liquored up

I like her just fine



Well shes such a pretty thing

You'd think shes heaven sent

She's the quarrelsome kind

Love's an argument

She could yell all day

She can scream all night

I just sit there smilin

As high as a kite



It takes a whole lot of liquor

To like her

Thats why I drinking all the time

It takes a whole lot of liquor

To like her

But when I'm liquored up

I like her just fine



This drinking buddy of mine

Said he met a girl

Said she was the meanest

Woman in the world

I saw her pretty picture

I said man your poking fun

Then the day I met her

I said pour me one



It takes a whole lot of liquor

To like her

Thats why I drink all the time

It takes a whole lot of liquor

To like her

But when I'm liquored up

I like her just fine



You may look down your nose at me

Think I'm an old sorry

Son of a bean

The only way I'm giving up

My drinking glass is if I can

Find a way to get her off my back



Spoken: Your wife's on the phone.
