STILL LONELY FROM DIVORCE !!

I thought we'd raise our only child
And feed him with a spoon
But, his mother loves another
And they're on a honeymoon.

All my friends say I must stop
Loving her, of course
So I drove my Ford to a honky-tonk
Still lonely from divorce.

The dance floor is almost full
Of country kings and queens.
I feel a pair of eyes
Just checking out my jeans.

I can see a smiling face
I'm almost at a run
For I know if I dance
I'm going to have some fun.

She stands up from her table
And reaches for my hand
Then I lead the both of us
Right up in front of the band.

Here I go, a-gambling
A gambling with my heart
For when I love a woman
It always hurts to part.
