Well, I ain't had nothing to drink |
|
I knew that's probably what you'd think |
|
If I dropped by this time of night |
|
Remember way back when |
|
I promised you |
|
I'd drop in |
|
At one of those meetings down at the |
|
YAnd they started talkin' 'bout steps you take |
|
Mistakes you make, the hearts you break |
|
And the price you pay, |
|
I almost walked away |
|
And you could hear a pin drop when this old man |
|
Stood up and said, "I'm gonna' say it again like I do every weekFor those who don't know me" |
|
It's the simple things in life like the kids at home and a loving wife |
|
That you miss the most, when you lose control |
|
And everything you love starts to disappear |
|
The devil takes your hand and says, "No fearHave another shot, just one more beer" |
|
Yeah, I've been there, that's why |
|
I'm hereThis ol' boy stood up in the aisle |
|
Said he'd been living a life of denial |
|
And he cried as he talked about wasted years |
|
I couldn't believe what |
|
I heardIt was my life word for word |
|
And all of the sudden it was clear |
|
It's the simple things in life like the kids at home and a loving wife |
|
That you miss the most, when you lose control |
|
And everything you love starts to disappear |
|
The devil takes your hand and says, "No fearHave another shot, just one more beer" |
|
Yeah, I've been there, that's why |
|
I'm hereI know for us it may be too late |
|
But it would mean the world to me |
|
If you were there when |
|
I stand to say |
|
It's the simple things in life like the kids at home and a loving wife |
|
That you miss the most, when you lose control |
|
And everything you love starts to disappear |
|
Devil takes your hand and says, "No fearHave another shot, just one more beer" |
|
Yeah, I've been there, that's why |
|
I'm hereOh, |
|
I've been there, that's why |
|
I'm here |
