How can you leave off “What do we do with the drunken sailor” song and it’s many varied and progressively raunchy stanzas?

Good to see my first choice, You Never Even Call Me by My Name on the list. But I’d change Pop a Top to the original by Jim Ed Brown. There Stands the Glass by Webb Pierce and Redneck White Socks and Blue Ribbon Beer by Johnny Russell is another classic.

They Oughta Name A Drink After You

Oh I get drunk most every night
Seems like all we do is fight
The more I drink
The less I feel blue
Sometimes I feel like an awful fool
Spendin’ my life on an old bar stool
And yes I guess they oughta name a drink after you

If this date were to be our last
I’d never sit down this glass
It’d take all the booze in the world
To forget you
You’ve left my heart a vacant lot
I’ll fill it with another shot
And yes I guess they oughta name a drink after you

Looks like I had my fill
Guess I better pay my bill
When I started out I only meant to have a few
Someone just said that you left town
I better get a double round
And yes I guess they oughta name a drink after you

“There Stands the Glass” - Webb Pierce.

Pretty much anything by Shane McGowan, but especially “That Woman’s got me drinking”

“It Won’t Hurt” by Dwight Yoakum

It won’t hurt when I fall down from this bar stool
And it won’t hurt when I stumble in the street
It won’t hurt ‘cause this whiskey eases misery
But even whiskey cannot ease your hurting me

Today I had another bout with sorrow
You know this time I almost won
If this bottle would just hold out ‘til tomorrow
I know that I’d have sorrow on the run

Chorus:
It won’t hurt when I fall down from this bar stool
And it won’t hurt when I stumble in the street
It won’t hurt ‘cause this whiskey eases misery
But even whiskey cannot ease your hurting me

Your memory comes back up with each sunrise
I reach out for the bottle and find it’s gone
Yeah, Lord, somewhere every night the whiskey leave me
To face this cold, cold world on my own

Chorus:
It won’t hurt when I fall down from this bar stool
And it won’t hurt when I stumble in the street
It won’t hurt ‘cause this whiskey eases misery
But even whiskey cannot ease your hurting m
