"I Drink Alone" is a rock song by American blues rock band George Thorogood and the Destroyers, released as a single from the 1985 album Maverick by EMI America. It was written by George Thorogood.
The song describes a man who, as the name of the song suggests, spends most of his time alone drinking, and it name-checks various alcoholic beverages.
Thorogood says that the song "is about a loner who wants to be alone.", and that I Drink Alone is meant to be a comedy song.
