Lyrics
ONE LAST SHOT
Copyright 2007 by Barry Meadow
She threw the keys at me and barely missed my head
She was screaming, so was I, and then I headed for the door
You'd think that after eight years she would run out of ideas
But she managed to come up with yeah, just one more
She just had to hammer me with one last insult
Which I tried my best to totally ignore
She gave me one last shot
One last shot
One last shot
Then I was gone
So I drove to Billy's Bar and Grill but I skipped the grill
I took a seat alone and ordered a double
Billy said "Where's your wife tonight, is everything all right?"
And then I told him a little of my troubles
Soon it was "Last call" and time for me to go
Billy said "Go home," boy that guy sure ain't subtle
He gave me one last shot
One last shot
One last shot
Then I was gone.
We're always buttin' heads, I'm getting used to it I guess
We fight and we love and we fight and we love...
I went outside and stumbled down the street into the night
Didn't know if I could drive things seemed just a little hazy
I thought about a taxi 'cause I felt a little drowsy
But she drove up at that moment and said "I'm sorry, baby"
Then she said "Get, in lover," and then we headed home
What can I do that woman always drives me crazy
We'll give it one last shot
One last shot
One last shot
I won't be gone
I don't want ever to be gone
One last shot
One last shot
One last shot
I won't be gone
I don't want ever to be gone
