I can think of a couple of Spike Jones songs (as well as "Cocktails For Two", mentioned above): "Clink, Clink, Another Drink" and the wonderful "I Haven't Been Home For Three Whole Nights", the latter being a cautionary tale/celebration of excessive imbibing:

"I haven't been home for three whole nights,
Last night, tonight and tomorrow"

Some others that come to mind are:

"What's The Use Of Getting Sober" - Louis Jordan
"Drinkin' By Myself" - Wynonie Harris
"Drinkin' Wine Spo-Dee-O-Dee" - Wynonie Harris (& others)
"Rhythm & Booze" - Corky Jones
"Booze Party" - Three Aces & A Joker
"Pink Champagne" - Joe Liggins
"Hittin' The Bottle" - Jimmie Lunceford
"Gin, Gin" - Le Trio Ferret
