At two AM I said I’d love you
Until the Trump of Doom
But now the dawn is breaking
And my head is aching
And why are you still in my room?
Yeah, slip a little Jack Black in me
I’m your tall, dark, romantic hunk
But the fact of the matter is, my honey
I only love you when I’m drunk

When Captain Morgan introduced us
The chemistry just wasn’t there
But Jose Cuervo took your side
And you became my lady fair
We rode the Night Train to my place
Johnnie Walker showed you to my bunk
A little later I said I love you
Do you think that maybe I was drunk?

At two AM I said I’d love you
Until the Trump of Doom
But now the dawn is breaking
And my head is aching
And why are you still in my room?
Yeah, slip a little Jack Black in me
I’m your tall, dark, romantic hunk
But there ain't no doubt about it, sweetie
I only love you when I’m drunk

On our wedding day I stood at the altar
With Jimmy Beam as my best man
Then Two-Buck Chuck slipped the ring on your finger
And that was when it hit the fan
We honeymooned at Boone’s Farm, honey
And everything was going swell.
But then the Mad Dog bit me, I wound up in detox
And my whole world went to hell.

I’m sorry that I have to leave you, honey
But there’s no way we can work it out
A broken heart can mend after all, but in the end
It’s my liver that I’m worried about
When I’ve got a happy glow I’m the nicest guy you know
But there’s no sober without S-O-B
I gotta find myself a doll that don’t require ethanol
To tell me she’s the one for me
