I Gotta Drinkin’ (Tonight’s Gonna Be a Good Night)
Alex (TikTok Country Session)
Description
A raucous country-comedy party anthem channeling the Black Eyed Peas after a bowling alley beer binge. Imagine a four-on-the-floor beat driving open chords, with singalong hollers and a breakdown that embraces world-class drinking toasts. This is pure, unadulterated, feel-good chaos designed for maximum participation.
Lyrics
[Intro] (Shouted, with increasing intensity) "I gotta drinkin' that tonight's gonna be a good night!" "I gotta drinkin' that tonight's gonna be a good night!" "Whooooo!" [Verse 1] Work week's done, paycheck's here, Got that Friday feelin', crystal clear. Got my buddies, got my boots, Headin' down to break a few roots. [Chorus] I gotta drinkin'—woohoo! That tonight’s gonna be a good night That tonight’s gonna be a good, good night Fill ‘em up, fill ‘em up, fill ‘em up—let’s go! Tonight’s the night, let’s live it up I got my money, let’s spend it up (on beer!) [Verse 2] The band's playin' loud, the crowd's on fire, Every heart's beatin' with a wild desire. To raise a glass, to sing along, To forget our troubles, where we belong. [Chorus] I gotta drinkin'—woohoo! That tonight’s gonna be a good night That tonight’s gonna be a good, good night Fill ‘em up, fill ‘em up, fill ‘em up—let’s go! Tonight’s the night, let’s live it up I got my money, let’s spend it up (on beer!) [Breakdown] (Tempo slows slightly, becomes more deliberate) Mazeltov! Shot o’clock! L’chaim! Bottoms up, y’all! (Tempo returns to normal, band vamps on a simple riff) [Chorus] I gotta drinkin'—woohoo! That tonight’s gonna be a good night That tonight’s gonna be a good, good night Fill ‘em up, fill ‘em up, fill ‘em up—let’s go! Tonight’s the night, let’s live it up I got my money, let’s spend it up (on beer!) [Final Chant] Let’s do it, let’s do it, let’s do it—do it—do it! And if we get pulled over, everybody blame the music!
