Lyric

Well I've done some things that I can't undo

I took your trust and I tore it in two

No man in his right mind could have said it's over

Still I told you goodbye completely sober

I wish I could say I'd been drinking

And blame the bottle but I've never been one to booze

Lord only knows what I was thinking

Wish I could say I'd been drinking

Even that's just a fool's excuse

My mama knows her baby boy knows better

It's gonna break her heart to hear we're not together

She's always said she cares so much for you

So what is she gonna say about the hell I've put you through?

I wish I could say I'd been drinking

And blame the bottle but I've never been one to booze

Lord only knows what I was thinking

Wish I could say I'd been drinking

Even that's just a fool's excuse

Even Tennessee whiskey couldn't wash away the pain

Watered down with teardrops over light Kentucky rain

I wish I could say I'd been drinking

And blame the bottle but I've never been one to booze

Lord only knows what I was thinking

Wish I could say I'd been drinking

Even that's just a fool's excuse

I wish I could say I'd been drinking

And blame the bottle but I've never been one to booze

Lord only knows what I was thinking

Wish I could say I'd been drinking

Even that's just a fool's excuse

- It's already the end -
