back in the saddle

(album: shot in the dark - 2023)

Hey, whiskey green eyes
Your lonely looks like mine
"Is that seat taken, mind if I take it?
Order up another one of what you're drinkin'"
We can talk about it or just pretend
You ain't here 'cause of her, I ain't here 'cause of him
We both got a couple names we could cheers to
Wasted years too, so baby, here's to

Getting back in the saddle
Putting boots in the gravel
Leaving her memory in an old dust cloud
Ditching this "missing him" merry-go-round
Baby, whatever we say
We've been drinking and we ain't
Tryna ride off into a red sunset, nah
This is just you and me tryna to forget

Getting back in the saddle

Another double shot for the pain, little
Hold you in the dark for the heartbreak
Ain't nothing a tequila slow dance can't fix
Your hands, my hips, all night like this

Getting back in the saddle
Putting boots in the gravel
Leaving her memory in an old dust cloud
Ditching this "missing him" merry-go-round
Baby, whatever we say
We've been drinking and we ain't
Tryna ride off into a red sunset, nah
This is just you and me tryna forget

Getting back in the saddle

Oh-oh-ooh (getting over, getting over it)
Hmm-mm (but in my mind, he's just a little bit)

We both got a couple names we could cheers to
Wasted years too, so baby, here's to (here's to)

Getting back in the saddle
Putting boots in the gravel
Leaving her memory in an old dust cloud (in an old dust cloud)
Ditching this "missing him" merry-go-round (merry-go-round)
Baby, whatever we say (whatever we say)
We've been drinking and we ain't
Tryna ride off into a red sunset, nah
This is just you and me tryna forget (yeah)

(Getting over, getting over it) getting back in the saddle
(But in my mind, in my mind just a saddle, baby)
It don't mean we're getting over it (getting over, getting over it)
(But in my mind, he's just a little bit) we're getting back on the saddle
Getting back in the saddle
