"Drinkin' Me Lonely" is the debut single by American country music artist and winner of the season 4 Nashville Star competition Chris Young. Young wrote the song with Larry Wayne Clark.
The song is a ballad about drinking alcohol at a bar to cope with the heartache of losing a girlfriend/wife.
In his review of the album, Thom Jurek of Allmusic gave the song a positive review, saying that "By the time "Drinkin' Me Lonely'" comes up on the player, the album is in full swing. It's a song Merle Haggard would have been proud to write."
The music video was directed by Warren P. Sonada and premiered in 2006.
