The engine turns on a dime But I ain't going nowhere tonight I ain't been going nowhere for quite a while Can't tell the truth in a house of lies Can't explain what I don't know One shot, one beer and a kiss before I go One more kiss 'fore I go One more night and day Breath all heavy and slow One shot, one beer and a kiss before I go I'll miss those nights at the bar With every girl all loaded like freights And the pain in the morning comes as easy as it goes Can't find the truth in a house of lies And you can't see tomorrow with yesterday's eyes One shot, one beer and a place where nobody cries One more kiss 'fore I go One more night and day Breath all heavy and slow One shot, one beer and a kiss before I go
