[Verse 1]
Well, I've heard some mixed opinions
'bout whiskey, wine and beer
But I went to school at Honky-Tonk U
So let me clear the air
Wine won't sneak up on you
And whiskey don't make you mean
And beer don't make you fat
It makes you lean
[Chorus]
Well, you lean on the tables, lean on the bar
You lean on your buddies, stumbling out to the car
You lean on your woman while she drives you home
You lean, lean, lean 'til you're beer and bones
Don't let 'em feed you no lines about too many calories
They say it makes you fat but it's a honky-tonk fact
Beer makes you lean
[Verse 2]
I put some scars on my guitar
When I used it for a crutch
And when I'm shot, that old jukebox
Helps to prop me up
And I've stood tall against the wall
At forty-five degrees
Hey, beer don't make you fat
It makes you lean
Yes, it does
[Chorus]
Well, you lean on the tables, lean on the bar
You lean on your buddies, stumbling out to the car
You lean on your woman while she drives you home
You lean, lean, lean 'til you're beer and bones
Don't let 'em feed you no lines about too many calories
They say it makes you fat but it's a honky-tonk fact
Beer makes you lean
Ah, pour us another round, boys
[Outro Chorus]
Yeah, don't let 'em feed you no lines about too many calories
They say it makes you fat but it's a honky-tonk fact
Beer makes you lean
Yeah, I'll drink to that
It don't make you fat
Beer makes you lean
On everything
