Another Good Reason

Alan Jackson · High Mileage [1998]

(Harley Allen/Carson Chamberlain)



I woke up the other night lying on the floor

Right beside someone I've never seen before

She said, ''My name's Juliet, and Romeo you ain't.''

That's another good reason not to drink.



That's another good reason not to drink

When I'm sober I'm almost a saint

If I keep going on like this I'll end up like ole Hank

That's another good reason not to drink.



I cant go see my best friend, he said, ''Stay away.''

Just because of what I said on his wedding day

He oughta call her Shermam 'cause she looks just like a tank

That's another good reason not to drink.



That's another good reason not to drink

When I'm sober I'm almost a saint

If I keep going on like this I'll end up like ole Hank

That's another good reason not to drink.

I'm gonna sue the city about that policeman

Last night as I left the bar, he stepped right on my hand

He said, ''Are you drunk or blind?'', I said, ''Let me think.''

That's another good reason not to drink.



That's another good reason not to drink

When I'm sober I'm almost a saint

If I keep going on like this I'll end up like ole Hank

That's another good reason not to drink.



Whew.

That's another good reason not to drink

When I'm sober I'm almost a saint

If I keep going on like this I'll end up like ole Hank

That's another good reason.

Baby, let me in I'm freezing

Another good reason not to drink...
