Drink wuh huh drinking

All day we drinking and we don need no chaser
Rum in awi system I'm a professional drinka
All day we drinking and we don need no chaser
Yh

I drink I don get drunk
(Wuh u mean)
Any time I have alcohol
I does have a ball
When rum get in my anatomy, I does feel so alive
If drinking rum was a strategy, I done strategize
And they say I could never control what I drink
That is a lie, just look me in my eye
I'm a professional
All day we drinking and we don need no chaser
Rum in awi system I'm a professional drinka
All day we drinking and we don need no chaser
Rum in awi system I'm a professional drinka

But I won't drink no less
(Yes)
When rum get in my anatomy, I does feel so alive
Poor behavior pardon me, I apologize
Cuz they say that I cannot behave when I drink
That is a lie, just look me in my eye
I'm a professional
All day we drinking and we don need no chaser
Rum in awi system I'm a professional drinka
All day we drinking and we don need no chaser
Rum in awi system I'm a professional drinka
Show me wuh yuh drinking

If drinking rum was a strategy, I done strategize
And they say I could never control what I drink
That is a lie, just look me in my eye

All day we drinking and we don need no chaser
Rum in awi system I'm a professional drinka
All day we drinking and we don need no chaser
Rum in awi system I'm a professional drinka
Now listen officer I am not drunk
I just need to get to my car
And when I get to my car
I drive home and see my. your wife
The lyrics to Ricardo Drue's song "Professional" is an upbeat and lively representation of the artist's love for alcoholic beverages, particularly rum. The song begins with the artist requesting to be shown what is being consumed and then professing to be a professional drinker. Drue brags about his ability to handle his liquor and not get drunk, despite being inebriated, and how alcohol makes him feel "so alive." He also acknowledges his reputation for not being able to control himself when he drinks, but disputes that he is a professional with the ability to handle any amount of alcohol. Finally, the song ends with Drue insisting that he is not drunk and that he only needs to drive home.
The lyrics suggest that the song is intended to be a celebration of one's ability to drink large quantities of alcohol without getting drunk, which is a common trait of professional drinkers. Additionally, the song highlights the importance of having a good time and letting go of inhibitions, especially when it comes to drinking with friends. While the lyrics suggest that alcohol can have negative consequences, such as causing poor behavior or creating pressure from loved ones to quit drinking, the song ultimately rejects these issues and celebrates the joy of drinking.
