[Intro] [Verse 1] Hard times in the city I get over I get under Don’t it make you feel dizzy? All the anger    I don’t mean to be jealous But my eyes have seen you with fellas I find it hard to be part of the city when it’s so unjust It makes me feel like I wanna die that’s why [Chorus] I don’t drink alone (I never drink alone) I got a big fine mamma at home (I just can’t get enough) She calls me chicken bone (My midnight tone) And then she rolls me like a stone (I just can’t get enough) [Verse 2] Bricked up in the city and the buildings are laughing Pay check burning my pocket Going to buy a gold chain and a locket Makes me feel like I’m gonna lie that’s why [Chorus] I don’t drink alone (I never drink alone) I got a big fine mamma at home (I just can’t get enough) She calls me chicken bone (My midnight tone) And then she rolls me like a stone (I just can’t get enough) [Bridge] She sings when it’s over When it’s over she sings She doesn’t worry as I walk out the door ’Cos tomorrow I’ll bring Two small chocolates and a bottle of wine a very nice time All my pennies my farthings for my mortgage that I’m under At her place all the sorrows of the world can wait ’til tomorrow She makes me feel like it’s all alright that’s why [Chorus] I don’t drink alone (I never drink alone) I got a big fine mamma at home (I just can’t get enough) She calls me chicken bone (My midnight tone) And then she rolls me like a stone (I just can’t get enough) I don’t drink alone (I never drink alone) I got a big fine mamma at home (I just can’t get enough) She calls me chicken bone (My midnight tone) And then she rolls me like a stone (I just can’t get enough)

À propos de la chanson

Dans cette chanson, l'artiste évoque les difficultés de la vie urbaine et ses sentiments de désespoir face aux injustices du monde. Bien qu'il se sente accablé par cette ambiance, il trouve du réconfort dans sa relation avec une femme, qui semble apporter une touche de légèreté à son existence. Il préfère ne pas affronter ses soucis seul, se tournant vers elle pour partager des moments simples et réconfortants, loin des tracas quotidiens. Le contexte se déroule dans un environnement urbain où la pression et la frustration peuvent rapidement prendre le dessus. Malgré la dureté de la vie, il se retrouve en quête de chaleur humaine et d'une connexion sincère, illustrant ainsi la lutte entre la réalité de la ville et le désir d'évasion.
