Don't Pay The Ransom Lyrics - Singles - Nat Stuckey

Last night I stopped off for a beer on my way home 

And I saw this broken hearted sweet thing cryin' all alone 

My tender heart was deeply touched at the sight of a woman's tears 

So I said hi there and I pulled up a chair and ordered us a couple of beers 

We must have drunk a gallon of brew when I looked at my watch it was half past two 

And I suddenly realized I hadn't even called my wife 

And knowin' what would happen to me when I get home 

I nearly broke my neck gettin' to the phone 

And here's what I told her in an effort to save my life 

Don't pay the ransom honey I've escaped 

Considering what I've been through I'm in good shape 

Well my wrist and ankles are a little sore from the tape 

But don't pay the ransom honey I've escaped 

[ guitar - steel ] 

Now if you got tied up somewhere tonight on your way home 

In a poker game or with a pretty dame and it slips your mind to phone 

Don't blow your cool like a crazy fool and tell your woman where you've been 

Your situation requires imagination and I've got a suggestion my friend 

Tell her now don't pay the ransom ... 

No don't pay the ransom honey I've escaped
