The One You Knock Back
Thinkin back when a wise man said
The one you knock backs the one you never get, hallelujah
You might as well go for a ride
Left to rot in a state of shock
The one I knocked backs the one I never got, man I tell ya
I couldve curled over & cried
Blood shot eyes & lil white lies
& tellin me its not enough
Say goodbye how can you do it
When the goods are shakin right before your eyes
Got a call late Saturday night
A drunk ex-girlfriend wants a piece of the action
She didnt wanna sleep on her own
Same as always makes me cry
The only time I get any satisfaction
Is when the doggy aint got a bone
Blood shot eyes & lil white lies
& tellin me its not enough
Say goodnight heres to ya honey
Theres ya bag & dont forget to lock the door
Looking forward to a future when
I find myself back upon the horse again, ride on cowboy
Riding right into the night
Nothin worse when its not your fault
You saddle up slowly and the horsey bolts, whatd I tell ya
Im gonna ride solo tonight
Blood shot eyes & lil white lies
& tellin me its not enough
Say goodbye nice knowin ya sugar
Theres ya bag & dont forget to lock the door
I dont know why we even bother
Dont come back unless youre gonna stay for more
Blood shot eyes, ya telling me lies
Blood shot eyes, ya telling me lies
