Another long, hard, working day gone, time to pack it up and head on home
Sun's gonna rise, and I know I gotta do it all over again
There's only two ways through this town, and I don't ever take the other way around
I see the lights, and I slow down, it's like they pull me in
I was gonna drive by, wasn't gonna stop
Then my old truck found a front row spot
Gonna drop in, but I wasn't gonna stay
Then I heard a barstool calling my name
Wasn't gonna let the bar twist my arm
But I'm helpless in a honky tonk
Said I wasn't gonna drink
And then a country song came on
I was almost one boot out of the door when the band kicked in 2, 3, 4
Blame it on ETC for keeping that neon burning on me
I was gonna drive by, wasn't gonna stop
Then my old truck found a front row spot
Gonna drop in but I wasn't gonna stay
Then I heard a barstool calling my name
Wasn't gonna let the bar twist my arm
But I'm helpless in a honky tonk
Said I wasn't gonna drink
And then a country song came on, yeah
I was gonna get a good night's sleep
And then a country song came on
Save it for the end of the week
And then a country song came on
I was gonna drive by, wasn't gonna stop
Then my old truck found a front row spot
Gonna drop in but I wasn't gonna stay
Then I heard an old flame calling my name
Wasn't gonna let the bar twist my arm
But I'm helpless in a honky tonk
Said I wasn't gonna drink
And then a country song came on
I wasn't gonna drink
And then a country song came on
No, I wasn't gonna drink
Yeah, a country song came on
