Looks like I really screwed up again. I should've learned by now that I ain’t never gonna win. I know the reason, I didn’t even ask, because I’ve heard it all before from relationships past. Now I’m on my own again, but as you leave, I say there goes another good woman. I should’ve learned by now, that I can catch ‘em, but I can’t hold ‘em. So I take it all with a grain of salt, don’t worry darlin' this ain’t your fault. Sometimes you just gotta know when to fold ‘em. Tonight I'm headed to the dancehall, I'm a single man. I'll be laughin’, and dancin’, and knockin’ ‘em back, and throwin’ caution to the wind. You can search my heart for answers, and what I'm all about; but these are my ways, I'll never change, you should've learned that by now. I still get down when I think of you. I ran you off like a brown card carryin’ fool. There'll be no justifyin’, not even worth the tryin’ I'm wrong, we both know it’s true. You know I'd change if I really thought it'd work, but I hate bein’ responsible for someone else's hurt. Like an old broken record, I repeat the same mistakes. The flames go up and another heart gets burned. So tonight when I'm out at the dance hall, I’m a single man. I'll be laughin’, jokin’, drinkin’ and smokin’, cuttin’ up with all of my friends. There's nothin’ in the world more sad than a broken hearted sinner. Out in the world, here in this bar, tryin like hell to be a winner.
