[Verse 1]Another long, hard, working day gone, time to pack it up and head on homeSun's gonna rise, and I know I gotta do it all over againThere's only two ways through this town, and I don't ever take the other way aroundI see the lights, and I slow down, it's like they pull me in[Chorus]I was gonna drive by, wasn't gonna stopThen my old truck found a front row spotGonna drop in, but I wasn't gonna stayThen I heard a barstool calling my nameWasn't gonna let the bar twist my armBut I'm helpless in a honky tonkSaid I wasn't gonna drinkAnd then a country song came on[Verse 2]I was almost one boot out of the door when the band kicked in, "Two, three, four"Blame it on ETC for keeping that neon burning on me[Chorus]I was gonna drive by, wasn't gonna stopThen my old truck found a front row spotGonna drop in but I wasn't gonna stayThen I heard a barstool calling my nameWasn't gonna let the bar twist my armBut I'm helpless in a honky tonkSaid I wasn't gonna drinkAnd then a country song came on, yeah[Bridge]I was gonna get a good night's sleepAnd then a country song came onSave it for the end of the weekAnd then a country song came on[Chorus]I was gonna drive by, wasn't gonna stopThen my old truck found a front row spotGonna drop in but I wasn't gonna stayThen I heard an old flame calling my nameWasn't gonna let the bar twist my armBut I'm helpless in a honky tonkSaid I wasn't gonna drinkAnd then a country song came onI wasn't gonna drinkAnd then a country song came on[Outro]No, I wasn't gonna drinkYeah, a country song came on
