If I can get home tonight
I’m gonna treat my baby right.
He’s the only one I love
Don’t know why it’s never enough.
I know I’m really wrong
And when he’s down my heart just falls
But my good intentions are lost
When the jukebox lights come on.
Bartender, will you turn this music off?
If you can let the tap run dry
I might stand a chance tonight
Cause my baby said one more time
I get out of line it’ll be my fault
But he’ll be the one who takes a walk.
I could have gone the other way.
I should have stayed home today.
If I’d only said no thanks
To the cowboy and the drink.
Baby’s gonna know where I been
It won’t help me to pretend.
I could have found the door
But that song started playing again.
Bartender, will you turn this music off?
If you can let the tap run dry
I might stand a chance tonight
Cause my baby said one more time
I get out of line it’ll be my fault
But he’ll be the one who takes a walk.
