    With nobody else
    I drink alone, yeah
    With nobody else
    Yeah, you know when I drink alone
    I prefer to be by myself
    Now every morning just before breakfast
    I don't want no coffee or tea
    Just me and good buddy Wiser
    That's all I ever need
    'Cause I drink alone, yeah
    With nobody else
    Yeah, you know when I drink alone
    I prefer to be by myself
    Yeah, the other night I laid sleeping
    And I woke from a terrible dream
    So I caught up my pal Jack Daniel's
    And his partner Jimmy Beam
    And we drank alone, yeah
    With nobody else
    Yeah, you know when I drink alone
    I prefer to be by myself
    Yeah, the other day I got invited to a party
    But I stayed home instead
    Just me and my pal Johnny Walker
    And his brothers Black and Red
    And we drank alone, yeah
    With nobody else
    Yeah, you know when I drink alone
    I prefer to be by myself
    Yeah my whole family done give up on me
    And it makes me feel oh so bad
    The only one who will hang out with me
    Is my dear old granddad
    And we drink alone, yeah
    With nobody else
    Yeah, you know when I drink alone
    I prefer to be by myself
    Yeah, you know when I drink alone
    I prefer to be by myself
    I drink alone

    As a solitary drinker for years this song says it all . Nobody to argue with , nobody to see you make a fool of yourself , nobody to embarass yourself with and a bed to crash out on just feet away . Who needs pubs and company ? Add to that good sounds on the stereo and drunken dreams . memories and reflections it beats the crap out of being surrounded by noisy people in a crowded bar .

Then just feeling run down all the time. And shaking, my God, did I shake!!! Like a 90 yr old man!No $h!t. And the money I spent. If I had the money I spent at bars, I could retire right now!!! But, I did have alot of fun going out, so it wasn't all bad. I don't want cha to think I hated it. But, it just got old. Ya know.

      Is it possible, that Americans can drink so much alcohol (like the real hard Irish)? I wonder scenes from these films reflect the American way to relax alone? How often do Americans fight with stress with the help of alcohol (for example, whiskey)? Anyway, actually Irish drink more alcohol than Americans, and even whiskey is treasure of Irish and beer is property of German.
