She’d be hurt if she knew I was drinking
Cause one’s too much and twelve’s not enough
She knows how it messes up my thinking
How it makes me look for someone else to love

I get honky tonk amnesia
I forget where all my love belongs
I get honky tonk amnesia
And sometimes it lasts all night long

She’ll accept my story without question
About the overtime I’m putting in
Till someone calls she’ll tell them that I’m resting
While I wonder what I’ve done and where I’ve been
And sometimes it lasts all night long
