One foot in, the other sayin' don't go
But that door swings open, and my heart says hello
To the glow, to the crowd, to the sweet señorita sound
Man, I should've turned that truck around
Too many drinks I done counted before
Said last night's my last, then I said one more
Flashing lights in the rearview mirror
I prayed, Lord, don't let em pull me nearer
Luck hit twice, wasn't meant for me
Some poor soul took my misery
I swear I'm tryin' to get sober
But temptation got a ten-step holdin' me over
Oh my, my, it's hard work bein' sober
Too many sweet lil' mamacitas callin' me over
Señorita, take it easy on me
If I take one more shot, I'll lose my streak
From tequila dreams to a casita scene
I'm fightin' the man I used to be
Oh my, my, it's hard work bein' sober
Cowboy hat tipped low in the smoke
She's laughin' close, that perfume spoke
Said, Mi amor, just one won't hurt
But I've been down that road, face in the dirt
Every glass looks like freedom pourin'
Every song keeps the devil roarin'
I ain't no saint, but I'm tryin' to be
Still that bar light keeps callin' me
I need an intervention, out here token
Can't fix a heart that's half-broken
One foot steady, one foot shakin'
Good intentions, bad decisions waitin'
Oh my, my, it's hard work bein' sober
Too many sweet lil' mamacitas callin' me over
Señorita, don't you play that song
My will ain't strong when the night's this long
From tequila laughs to a walk of shame
Tryin' to outrun my own damn name
Oh my, my, yeah, it's hard work bein' sober
If you see me in that cantina again
Just tell the bartender I'm off the blend
I'm out the door, truck keys in hand
But damn, this sober thing's hard to stand
