lyrics

Sour beer, you can smell it on my breath
I’ve got tears, I’ll raise you one and take the bet
This horse ain’t gonna cross that line
‘Cause she was once mine, but now I’ve lost my baby

And how can I explain?
I’ve got nothing but disdain for the way I ran her out of here
But you know, baby, I’ve changed my tune
Next time I’ll be good to you.

Next time I gonna be safe I’ll call when I’m late
Won’t be gone past twelve, the dawn can rise alone
Gotta kill the pain so I’ll empty my glass
Hey bartender I’ll have one more and this will be my last

It’s the blues, I tried the shoe on and it fit
And there ain’t no getting ride of it, ‘less I find you
This is one long day in the life of a fool
Next time I’ll be good to you.

Next time I won’t wear no masks, them lies that I told
Hung me by the neck out in the drunken stupor cold
I’ve got regrets, I keep them in the bags under my eyes
When you look at me do you only see a man that you despise

It’s the blues, like I said I tried the shoe on and it fit
And there ain’t no getting rid of it, ‘less I find you
This is one long day in the life of a fool
Next time I’ll good – make sure it’s understood
Next time I’ll be good to you
