Back on My Feet
The day I left still haunts my dreams
I can still see you cryin' there, down on your knees
The life we built all shot to hell
No going back now, just stories to tell
So I came here, to drown the pain
Knowing good and well that it's all in vain
'Till I saw her across the bar
And felt hope come alive inside my heart
Well she ain't the real deal but she's a bargain the same
Mixing her with alcohol helps me forget your name
I know it ain't right, it won't fix my pain
But its better than sunlight feeling like rain
It'll be fun, maybe bittersweet
Might be just what I need to get back on my feet
(As so often does)
She started out a 6 but changed to a 9
After old Jack Daniels got me feeling real fine
What came next was really no surprise
I could see that little devil hiding in her eyes
They say its all fair in love and war
And who's to say we both wont score
The timing is right I've been down on my luck
As she grabs my hand and we head to the truck
Well she ain't the real deal but she's a bargain the same
Mixing her with alcohol helps me forget your name
I know it ain't right, it won't fix my pain
But its better than sunlight feeling like rain
It'll be fun, maybe bittersweet
Might be just what I need to get back on my feet
One night's sleep is all I'll get without you in my dreams
Tomorrow morning's daylight will bring you back to me
My blood shot eyes are the proof I'm really not over you
But I've heard the best way of moving on is to find somebody new
Well she ain't the real deal but she's a bargain the same
Mixing her with alcohol helps me forget your name
I know it ain't right, it won't fix my pain
But its better than sunlight feeling like rain
It'll be fun, maybe bittersweet
Might be just what I need to get back on my feet
I can still see you cryin' there, down on your knees
The life we built all shot to hell
No going back now, just stories to tell
So I came here, to drown the pain
Knowing good and well that it's all in vain
'Till I saw her across the bar
And felt hope come alive inside my heart
Well she ain't the real deal but she's a bargain the same
Mixing her with alcohol helps me forget your name
I know it ain't right, it won't fix my pain
But its better than sunlight feeling like rain
It'll be fun, maybe bittersweet
Might be just what I need to get back on my feet
(As so often does)
She started out a 6 but changed to a 9
After old Jack Daniels got me feeling real fine
What came next was really no surprise
I could see that little devil hiding in her eyes

And who's to say we both wont score
The timing is right I've been down on my luck

Well she ain't the real deal but she's a bargain the same
Mixing her with alcohol helps me forget your name
I know it ain't right, it won't fix my pain
But its better than sunlight feeling like rain
It'll be fun, maybe bittersweet
Might be just what I need to get back on my feet
One night's sleep is all I'll get without you in my dreams

I know it ain't right, it won't fix my pain
But its better than sunlight feeling like rain
It'll be fun, maybe bittersweet
Might be just what I need to get back on my feet
