I got whiskey to keep me warm when the sun goes down
And this God forsaken honky tonk ain't likely to run out
So won't you come on home and save me
Stop me before I drown
'Cause I'm no good, pretty mama
When you're not around
And there's women in this town whispering in my ear
Saying things a man in my condition likes to hear
So won't you come on home and stop me
Before I step on out
'Cause I'm no good, pretty mama
When you're not aroundWell I'm helpless when I'm tempted
And I'm headed straight for hell
Oh I've got no resistanceThe Devil knows me well
So won't you come on home sweet darlin'
Oh Lord I need you now
'Cause I'm no good, pretty mama
When you're not aroundNow there's a southbound
Callin' me further down the track
And if I get on board that train
Well I'm never coming back
So won't you meet me at the station
And tie my boot heels down
Cause I'm no good, pretty mama
