Hey bartender, I've got a tale to tell you
It's a story I'm sure you've heard a couple of times
But tonight I'm not here to drink a couple dozen beers
I'm just here to sing my heart out and pick away my tears
She left me all alone, I've got no woman at home
I never lied, lord I tried to never let her go
And
all of the good that I've done
I must have done all wrong
She left me all alone, got no woman at home
My barroom friends, they all think that I don't care
'Cause I no longer need the booze to get me through
But what
I need is that woman back in my arms where she belongs
Where she knows I never did and I'd never do her wrong
