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 callin´ 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 Two, three, four
Blame it on ETC for keeping that neon burnin´ 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 callin´ 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 callin´ 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
