Lyrics I Don't Want to Sober Up Tonight

(Merle Haggard)

I don't want to sober up tonight
I don't want to act like things are alright
And I don't want to change just to make you think I'm happy
That's my right, I don't want to sober up tonight.

I want to keep my mind a little hazy
I don't care if all my friends think I'm crazy
The way I treat myself I might be a little crazy
But that's alright, I don't want to sober up tonight.

I'm here to drown another day of misery
I'm in here to spend one night without a mem'ry
And the way I'm drinkin' now there won't be any memory
But that's alright, I don't want to sober up tonight.

I don't want to sober up tonight
I don't want to act like things are alright
I don't want to change just to make you think I'm happy
That's alright, I don't want to sober up tonight...
