Only If It's with You
Well we didn't get home last night
Until early this morning
I woke up in the kitchen
In nothing but my cowboy hat
With a half empty bottle of Dickel
And lipstick on my pickle
Feeling more banged up than an alley cat
I stumbled down the hallway
Looking for my turtle dove
You were naked as a jaybird
Crawling on your hands and knees
I said babe I thought we settled down
We're too old to be painting the town
Well I'll never forget what you said back to me
You said I like to get drunk
Every once in a while
Yeah I like to get high
Every once in a while
Might cause a little trouble
Every once in a while
But baby, only if it's with you
Well I used to run around
With all of my roughneck friends
Till I met me this pretty young thing
Down in Kalamazoo
I thought things surely would change
The day she went and took my last name
But sometimes when I get home she gets in a mood
She says I like to get drunk
Every once in a while
Yeah I like to get high
Every once in a while
Might cause a little trouble
Every once in a while
But baby, only if it's with you
We used to be the talk of the town
When we were in our prime
But the kids and the bills
Got us both working overtime
But I like to get drunk
Every once in a while
Yeah I like to get high
Every once in a while
Might cause a little trouble
Every once in a while
But baby, only if it's with you
Oh baby, only if it's with you
Until early this morning
I woke up in the kitchen
In nothing but my cowboy hat
With a half empty bottle of Dickel
And lipstick on my pickle
Feeling more banged up than an alley cat
I stumbled down the hallway
Looking for my turtle dove
You were naked as a jaybird
Crawling on your hands and knees
I said babe I thought we settled down
We're too old to be painting the town
Well I'll never forget what you said back to me
You said I like to get drunk
Every once in a while
Yeah I like to get high
Every once in a while
Might cause a little trouble
Every once in a while
But baby, only if it's with you
Well I used to run around
With all of my roughneck friends
Till I met me this pretty young thing
Down in Kalamazoo
I thought things surely would change
The day she went and took my last name
But sometimes when I get home she gets in a mood
She says I like to get drunk
Every once in a while
Yeah I like to get high
Every once in a while
Might cause a little trouble
Every once in a while
But baby, only if it's with you
We used to be the talk of the town
When we were in our prime
But the kids and the bills
Got us both working overtime
But I like to get drunk
Every once in a while
Yeah I like to get high
Every once in a while
Might cause a little trouble
Every once in a while
But baby, only if it's with you
Oh baby, only if it's with you
