Lyrics
(chorus)- X-X-X is how I rate last night, three of my X,s in the same honkey tonk talk about a cause for fright. I've got an offer to leave the country and I think I might, I want no more triple X rated nights.
Playing guitar at Jeds just last night inwalk Norma Jean looking out of sight, about 5 minutes later in walked Lou Anne, before the end of the set I see Kim with her old man. These three ladies all once knew me well, none of theme worked out, from grace we fell. Up there on the stage it felt like an loaded deck looking out there at my X X and X.
(chorus)
Well I said my quick hellos when we took a break, did a shot of whisky as I walked back to my date, That's when my date she asked me "who were those three" I told her they were all just used to bees.
I guees that was the wrong thing for me to say, she said "used to bees is that how you'll look at me some day'? That's when my date she told me that she's gonna put this fling to rest she said go back to yuor X,X and X.
(chorus)
