"The World Needs a Drink" (originally released as "I Think The World Needs a Drink") is a song by Canadian country music artist Terri Clark. The song was written by a then-unknown Eric Church and Casey Beathard and produced by Byron Gallimore. It was released on November 8, 2004, to country radio as a single. It was intended to be the lead single to Clark's planned sixth studio album Honky Tonk Songs, which would be reworked to Life Goes On (2005). The song was not included on the album.

The song peaked at number 26 on the US Hot Country Songs chart and number 24 on the Radio & Records Canada Country Top 30 chart. Although Clark herself has never performed the single live, its co-writer Eric Church has performed the song a few times at his concerts.
