|
I've seen you standing there stunned in the spotlight |
|
I've seen the sweat streak the pain on your face |
|
Cause you're caught like a clown in a circle of strangers |
|
Who do you screw to get out of this place |
|
Chorus: |
|
It's one for the money |
|
And too far to go |
|
Three fingers of whiskey |
|
Just for the soul |
|
That lady you're pleasin' |
|
Is hungry and cold |
|
Don't look in her eyes |
|
You'll see what you sold |
|
Too many bodies in too many bars |
|
Too many feelings are fallin' behind |
|
Cause you're easy to fool when you're lost in the stars |
|
Shoot out that spotlight before you go blind |
|
Chorus: |
|
It's one for the money |
|
And too far to go |
|
Three fingers of whiskey |
|
Just for the soul |
|
That lady you're pleasin' |
|
Is hungry and cold |
|
Don't look in her eyes |
|
You'll see what you sold |
