I Let Her Talk
She had two fists full of whiskey, three sheets to the wind, mascara running down her cheek
It was my first time in that barroom don’t know why she sat down next to me

I was starin’ down a glass of Tennessee whiskey, I wasn’t strong enough to drink
She was pourin’ out her heart and soul so loud I couldn’t even think

I let her talk about the hotel room where she spent last night
Let her talk about the married man and his soft green eyes
A careless drunk will show you pictures too
So baby I let her talk about you

I swear I couldn’t breath couldn’t say a word and she kept on and on and on
About how it breaks her heart to spend so many nights alone

I let her talk about his wife at home who doesn’t turn him on
Let her talk about having to wait till his kids are grown
A careless dunk will tell the cold hard truth
So baby I let her talk about you
You know a careless drunk will show you pictures too
So baby I let her talk about you

She finally turned my way and said what brings you here
I said a fight about a feeling I couldn’t prove, then I bought her another round
Another round, and another round…and
I let her talk about you
I let her talk about you baby
