Lyrics

[Verse 1]
If I didn't know better
I'd hang my hat right there
If I didn't know better
I'd follow you up the stairs
[Verse 2]
Stop saying those sweet things
You know I like to hear
The horns are blowing louder
The bailiff's drawing near
[Chorus]
Why do I keep drinking?
Wasting my time on you
If I didn't know better
Well damn it, I do
[Verse 3]
There's a hole in what you're saying
I can plainly see
You've a lover that's waiting
But baby, you're right here with me
[Bridge]
Oh, you might as well be the devil
Keeping me out past three
Well you're the one with that apple
So baby, you can't blame me
[Chorus]
Oh, why don't you keep drinking?
Give me one night with you
If I didn't know better
But damn it, I do
[Outro]
Baby I do
Sweet baby, you know that I do
