I'm No Good

(Album: Brand New Man - 1991)

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 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 darling
Oh Lord I need you now
'Cause I'm no good, pretty mama
When you're not around

Now there's a southbound
Calling 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

When you're not around
