A Kiss Before I Go

The engine turns on a dime,

but I ain't going nowhere tonight

I ain't been going nowhere for quite a while

Can't tell the truth in a house of lies,

Can't explain what I don't know

One shot, one beer, and a kiss before I go

One more kiss before I go

One more night and a day

Breath all heavy and slow

One shot, one beer, and a kiss before I go

I'll miss those nights at the bar with every girl

All loaded like freights

And the pain in the morning

Comes as easy as it goes

Can't find the truth in a house of lies

Can't see tomorrow with yesterday's eyes

One shot, one beer

And a place where nobody cries

One more kiss before I go

One more night and day

Breath all heavy and slow

One shot, one beer, and a kiss before I go
