I got whiskey to keep me warm
When the sun goes down
And this godforsaken 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
Whisperin' in my ear
Sayin' 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 around
Well I'm helpless when I'm tempted
And I'm headed straight for hell
Oh, I've got no resistance
The 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 around
Now there's a southbound callin' me
Further down the track
And if I get on board that train, well I'm never comin' back
So won't you meet me at the station
Tie my bootheels down
'Cause I'm no good, pretty mama
When you're not around
No, I'm no good, pretty mama
When you're not around
