To see me now you’d never know I used to have it all
A fancy home a swimming pool, gold records on the wall
A pretty wife to share my life, a chauffeur driven car
Now all I have I’ve found behind a pair of swinging door

Not long ago I told myself I could do no wrong
A part of high society is where my heart belonged
I didn’t know the brightest stars burn out before their time
And by the time my flame burned out I didn’t have a dime

Now it’s bar huggin, beer drinkin, blues cryin sad country songs
Slowly telling me all the places I went wrong
I’ll let my troubles dissappear right up til last call
That’s when her memory comes around just to see me crawl

She told me she’d be movin on and then she set me free
The promises we vowed to keep she buried here with me
But later on she’ll come around when whiskey dimes the lights
A haunting memory I can take through long and lonely nights

Now it’s bar huggin, beer drinkin, blues cryin sad country songs
Slowly telling me all the places I went wrong
I’ll let my troubles dissappear right up til last call
That’s when her memory comes around just to see me crawl
