Holding The Bag

(album: Just Good Ol' Boys - 1979)

You always leave me holding the bag
Don't you know it's getting purty heavy to drag
You think it's funny but it ain't no gag
How come you always leave me holding the bag

Remember out in Austin that time that we got tight
You told that ole boy that I wanted to fight
Now Moe, you know I really thought a that you could win
And I didn't see no sense in me a stepping in
You almost got me killed when you started to brag
And that's when you ran off and left me holding the bag

You always leave me holding the bag
Don't you know it's getting purty heavy to drag
You think it's funny but it ain't no gag
How come you always leave me holding the bag

Remember back in Nashville when we picked up them two
The ole ugly one for me and the purty one for you
Well, Joe, I bought the gas and it was my car
And I got stuck for all the beer at the bar
Yeah, you were up front a playing lover's tag
While I was in the back seat just a holding the bag

You always leave me holding the bag
Don't you know it's getting purty heavy to drag
You think it's funny but it ain't no gag
How come you always leave me holding the bag

Remember when I needed your alibi
My wife called you up and you didn't lie
Now that's not as bad as when you had me to drive
And I ended up with that dwi
Now after all we've done it's a wonder we're friends
But ole Pal you know we'd do it again

You always leave me holding the bag
Don't you know it's getting purty heavy to drag
You think it's funny but it ain't no gag
How come you always leave me holding the bag

You always leave me holding the bag
Don't you know it's getting purty heavy to drag
You think it's funny but it ain't no gag
How come you always leave me holding the bag...
