The Lord loves the drinkin' man.. He sends honky-tonk angels to the Promised Land,. I hear that he can turn water to wine.. Any man that can do that, oh he's good friend of mine..
Last night I dreamed I went to sleep for good. And in the crowd that gathered ?round, there you stood. When it finally came your turn to say goodbye. Right then and there, I watched you break down and cry.
I never claimed to know everything. I ain't got no PHD. But boys listen up when it comes to love. You can learn a thing or two from me. . I'm no expert on making love work.
Lucky me, I grew up. Beneath that ol' lone star. I was raised on fiddle and steel guitar. It used to be if you wanted to swing. To a good ol' country song.
Last night I came home again. Three sheets to the wind. And broke the promise I swore I'd never break. And it came as no surprise. To see the hurt in her eyes.
Even though I've only known her for a couple of beers. In just one more slow dance we'll be leavin' here. Holding each other like we'll never let go. Pretending it's love even though we both know.
While I was hunting wild turkey and sippin' on Jim Beam. I walked up on something like I've never seen. So deep in the woods where I thought I was alone.
I drove down to the trap. But the joint was closed. Lately they've been droppin like dominoes. All my favorite watering holes. Are dryin' up. . Tell me is it too much for a man to ask.
Well I'm slippin' on my old party clothes. Wondering if they're still in style. Ain't had 'em on. Since you've been gone. And that's been along long while.
She got me to stop drinking and for that I'm thankful. She almost pulled off, pulling me through. And she got me standing upright. Even had me coming home nights.
She started her new life ten dollars in debt,. That's all it took to get started back then.. A trip to the courthouse across the state line,. No-one could stop her,.
Since you left I can't stay sober and I've let the grass grow over. Those pretty flowers that you planted when we moved in. And the paint has started peeling, down the hall, along the ceiling.
Thirty years today she's been upon this earth. And she can't help but wonder what it's all been worth. She swears she loves those kids and she doesn't mind that load.
Her Momma cried. Her daddy prayed. I'd go away. And let her be. But her blue eyes. Looked in my heart. Faced the dark. Instilled in me. She opened up her bible.
From the table to the jukebox. Is just a few short steps. Where a dollar will buy a sad song. And a few strong drinks to help. . Them ol' lonely hearts and honky tonks.
I wish you'd look who's crawlin' back to you. I never thought I'd live to see today. I swore to you the day. I left, this time I'd go for good. And I was even proud enough to tell myself I could.
Oh rainy day woman. I never seem to see your for the good times or the sunshine. You have been a friend of mine, rainy day woman. . That woman of mine, she ain't happy.
Running Out Of Ways To Say I Love You. . I'm runnin outta ways to say I love you. I bet I've cried a million tears to show you. It hurts to think I've done all I can do.
I'm dying to forget about those goodbye words you said. I thought everything was right but you went and left instead. No pain, no gain, well I'm not out to win.
City sun goes down at night. Making way for neon lights. Country boy is lookin at the moon. City girl is dressed just right. She may stay out late tonight.
