Won't Be Lonely Long

(album: Way Out Here - 2010)

When the lonely set in, I fought back the tears
I don't love you anymore is so hard to hear
It felt like a mile from our door to my truck
Somehow I found the strength to fire it up

How lucky am I you said goodbye
At seven o'clock on a Friday night

I won't be lonely long
By the time that first beer is gone
I'll be floating on a neon cloud with my friends around
We'll be raising up our glasses and singing out loud

To those done me wrong, drinking songs
Hey ladies, tonight it's on
No, I won't be lonely long

Well, I usually ain't much on dancing, but tonight I'm cutting up a rug
I get to say no ma'am when the ladies ask if I'm with anyone
When I'm tipping the band and buying everybody shots
Spending every dollar I got

I won't be lonely long
By the time that first beer is gone
I'll be floating on a neon cloud with my friends around
We'll be raising up our glasses and singing out loud

To those done me wrong, drinking songs
Hey ladies, tonight it's on
No, I won't be lonely long

There ain't an empty space in this parking lot
Look at all the friends I got

I won't be lonely long
By the time that first beer is gone
I'll be floating on a neon cloud with my friends around
We'll be raising up our glasses and singing out loud

To those done me wrong, drinking songs
Hey ladies, tonight it's on
No, I won't be lonely long
