Medicinal Purposes is a honky tonk country ballad that blends humor with heartbreak. A cowboy orders a double whisky “for medicinal purposes,” then confesses to the barman that his girl ran off with a trucker heading north. Through vivid verses and chant style choruses, the song captures the grit of barroom storytelling, mixing pain with wit. With its conversational lyrics, smoky saloon imagery, and sing along chorus, it’s a track that feels at home in both jukeboxes and live sets—an anthem for anyone who’s ever tried to cure heartbreak with a stiff drink.
