They're waiting anxiously in a CVS to take a pregnancy test. They never thought that they'd be in this situation, but life changes unexpectedly. The chorus explains how "one beer turns into a lit cigarette burning into a two beer buzz." The couple's evening is starting to get a little wild and they end up kissing in the back of a truck. This one moment leads to everything rearranging in their lives. The couple is now raising their child together and their lives are completely different because of that one beer. As the song goes on, we see the couple's life progress. From having their child's artwork hung up on the fridge to getting married and having another child, the couple's life is constantly evolving. The lyrics make it clear that their love started because of alcohol, but they've grown to love each other for who they are. Overall, One Beer is a song about how one decision can have long-lasting consequences. HARDY reminds us that even something as simple as drinking one beer can change our lives forever.
