WHAT WE’RE DRINKIN TO
Keith Vincent
I CAN’T BELIEVE YOU WALKED INTO THIS BAR
I THOUGHT I’D FOUND MYSELF A HIDIN PLACE
WHERE I COULD PUT MYSELF TOGETHER
AFTER YOU TORE MY WORLD APART
TRUTH IS I’M STILL HAUNTED BY YOUR PRETTY FACE
SINCE YOUR HERE YOU MIGHT AS WELL SIT DOWN
YOUR USUAL OR HAVE YOU CHANGED TO SOMETHIN NEW
HEY JOE POUR ME A DOUBLE WITH A SINGLE ON THE SIDE
AND IF YOU’RE WONDRIN’ WHAT WE’RE DRINKIN TO
CHORUS:
LET’S DRINK TO LOVE
HOW IT DIDN’T LAST
LETS DRINK TO TRUST
NOW THAT’S A LAUGH
LET’S DRINK TO YOU AND ME
HOW WE USE TO BE
LET’S DRINK TO BEIN TRUE,
LET’S DRINK TO BEIN THROUGH
THAT’S WHAT WE ‘RE DRINKIN TO
YOU SAY YOUR HOPIN WE CAN STILL BE FRIENDS
I’D SAY YOU MADE IT CRYSTAL CLEAR
THERE WAS NO MISTAKEN
IT WAS YOU THERE IN HIS TRUCK
HUGGED UP SO CLOSE
HE COULD HARDLY SHIFT THE GEARS
CHORUS:
LET’S DRINK TO LOVE
HOW IT NEVER LAST
LETS DRINK TO TRUST
NOW THAT’S A LAUGH
LET’S DRINK TO YOU AND ME
HOW WE USE TO BE
LET’S DRINK TO BEIN TRUE,
LET’S DRINK TO BEIN THROUGH
THAT’S WHAT WE ‘RE DRINKIN TO
INSTRUMENT BRIDGE
BRIDGE
HERE’S TO A BROKEN HEART AND BREAKIN ‘ UP
AND IF THAT’S NOT ENOUGH
HERE’ S TO THE NEXT FOOL WHO EVER FALLS FOR YOU
LET’S DRINK TO YOU AND ME
HOW WE USE TO BE
LET’S DRINK TO BEIN TRUE,
LET’S DRINK TO BEIN THROUGH
THAT’S WHAT WE ‘RE DRINKIN TO
WHAT WE’RE DRINKIN’ TO........

Hi Keith, listened to your song and had the feeling that it is not consistent in its genre. I think it’s more Blues than Country and I would recommend to make it sound like a Blues song all through the song, the Chorus doesn’t feel that bluesy, try to make it feel more like a Blues Chorus. I would also recommend to reduce the tempo a bit, I think that would be a better fit to the lyric. I like the idea of the lyric, but the sarcastic undertone also better works in a Blues than in a Country song. These are only my thoughts - I ‘m not a pro and I maybe wrong. Good luck!
