I Think I just Remembered
(Why I started drinkin? again)

Well she was kinda cute She just might do,
Looked like somethin? I could catch
Wouldn?t slide down that hill for another year or two,
Yup she could be a decent match
Thought up somethin? I could say and put on my best smile
pushed off the bar to test my luck
With one look at me she froze me in my tracks,
like that deer and an oncoming truck
(chorus)
Well I think I just remembered why I started drinkin? again
Pour me another scotch on the rocks
This is where I always (usually) come in
Well I think I just remembered why I started drinkin? again
Pour me a double to wash down my troubles
(Pour him one too ? third chorus)
This night (nightmare) just might never end
Well he sized her up too, thought I?d save him the pain
Of flyin? into danger unprepared
But then I chose to watch just to see if he was good
As he ventured where I hadn?t dared
Well the Next thing I know she?s a laughin? at his jokes
And carryin? on jest like they?s old friends
And I sit here like a fool nursin? feeling?s and this drink
Thinkin? why aint? that me instead of him
Chorus
She comes waivin? and smilin? that girl number two
Thinkin? my luck might have turned
Made myself perky, well not too much cause
This is where I always get burned
She hugs girl number one and off they both run
Leavin? him and me high and dry
And we sit here shakin? heads thinkin?
Where they gonna go
To find two nicer guys that him and I
