A Bar Song (Tipsy) Shaboozey lyrics
Original Lyrics
English
[Verse 1]
My baby want a Birkin, she's been tellin' me all night long
Gasoline and groceries, the list goes on and on
This nine-to-five ain't workin', why the hell do I work so hard?
I can't worry 'bout my problems, I can't take 'em when I'm gone, uh
[Pre-Chorus]
One, here comes the two to the three to the four
Tell 'em "Bring another round," we need plenty more
Two-steppin' on the table, she don't need a dance floor
Oh my, good Lord
[Chorus]
Someone pour me up a double shot of whiskey
They know me and Jack Daniеl's got a history
There's a party downtown near 5th Street
Evеrybody at the bar gettin' tipsy
[Post-Chorus]
Everybody at the bar gettin' tipsy
Everybody at the bar gettin' tipsy
[Verse 2]
I've been Boozey since I left
I ain't changin' for a check
Tell my ma I ain't forget (Oh, Lord), I
Woke up drunk at 10 a.m.
We gon' do this shit again
Tell your girl to bring a friend, oh, Lord
[Pre-Chorus]
One, here comes the two to the three to the four
Tell 'em "Bring another round," we need plenty more
Two-steppin' on the table, she don't need a dance floor
Oh my, good Lord
[Chorus]
Someone pour me up a double shot of whiskey (Double shot of whiskey)
They know me and Jack Daniel's got a history (We go way back)
There's a party downtown near 5th Street
Everybody at the bar gettin' tipsy
[Post-Chorus]
Everybody at the bar gettin' tipsy (At the bar gettin' tipsy)
Everybody at the bar gettin' tipsy
[Bridge]
One, here comes the two to the three to the four
When it's last call and they kick us out the door
It's gettin' kind of late, but the ladies want some more
Oh my, good Lord (Tell 'em drinks on me)
[Chorus]
Someone pour me up a double shot of whiskey (Double shot of whiskey)
They know me and Jack Daniel's got a history (Way back)
There's a party downtown near 5th Street (Come on)
Everybody at the bar gettin' tipsy (Woo-ooh)
Someone pour me up a double shot of whiskey (Double shot of whiskey)
They know me and Jack Daniel's got a history (It's Jack D)
At the bottom of a bottle, don't miss me (Baby, don't miss me)
Everybody at the bar gettin' tipsy (At the bar gettin' tipsy)
[Post-Chorus]
Everybody at the bar gettin' tipsy
Everybody at the bar gettin' tipsy
[Outro]
That's fuckin' messed up, bro, they kicked me out the bar
My baby want a Birkin, she's been tellin' me all night long
Gasoline and groceries, the list goes on and on
This nine-to-five ain't workin', why the hell do I work so hard?
I can't worry 'bout my problems, I can't take 'em when I'm gone, uh
[Pre-Chorus]

Translation
Normal
[Verso 1]
Mi chica quiere un Birkin, me lo repite toda la noche
Gasolina y comestibles, la lista no para de crecer
Este nueve a cinco no funciona, ¿por qué diablo trabajo tan duro?
No puedo preocuparme por mis problemas, no me los llevo cuando me voy, uh
[Pre-Coro]
Uno, llega el dos, luego el tres y el cuatro
Diles que traigan otra ronda, necesitamos mucho más
Bailando sobre la mesa, no necesita pista
Oh Dios mío
[Coro]
Que alguien me sirva un doble de whiskey
Saben que Jack Daniels y yo tenemos historia
Hay fiesta en el centro cerca de la 5ta calle
Todos en el bar se están poniendo alegres
[Post-Coro]
Todos en el bar se están poniendo alegres
Todos en el bar se están poniendo alegres
[Verso 2]
He estado bebiendo desde que me fui
No cambio por dinero
Dile a mi mamá que no olvido (Oh Dios)
Desperté borracho a las 10 am
Vamos a repetirlo otra vez
Dile a tu chica que traiga una amiga, oh Dios
[Puente]
Uno, llega el dos, luego el tres y el cuatro
Cuando es última llamada y nos echan
Se hace tarde pero las chicas quieren más
Oh Dios mío (Diles que pago yo)
[Outro]
Qué mierda hermano, me echaron del bar
Mi chica quiere un Birkin, me lo repite toda la noche
Gasolina y comestibles, la lista no para de crecer
Este nueve a cinco no funciona, ¿por qué diablo trabajo tan duro?
No puedo preocuparme por mis problemas, no me los llevo cuando me voy, uh
[Pre-Coro]
Uno, llega el dos, luego el tres y el cuatro

Meaning & Explanation
Shaboozey's 'A Bar Song (Tipsy)' presents a modern anthem of escapism through alcohol and nightlife, blending country storytelling with hip-hop swagger. The song captures the universal struggle of work-life balance ('This nine-to-five ain't workin') and the temporary relief found in drinking culture. Through vivid imagery of bar scenes and whiskey references, the lyrics paint a picture of someone using alcohol as both celebration and coping mechanism. The recurring 'Everybody at the bar gettin' tipsy' chorus transforms individual experience into collective release, making it relatable to anyone who's ever sought solace in a night out. The mention of luxury items like Birkins juxtaposed with everyday struggles creates tension between aspirations and reality. Musically, the blend of country instrumentation with rap cadences mirrors this cultural collision, appealing to both urban and rural audiences. The song's brilliance lies in its honesty about using alcohol as social lubricant and emotional Band-Aid, while never glorifying the consequences (shown in the abrupt outro about getting kicked out). This duality makes it resonate with listeners who recognize both the fun and folly of bar culture. The Spanish translation maintains the carefree yet slightly melancholic tone, preserving the song's central theme of temporary escape from life's pressures through communal drinking experiences.
