Whitey Morgan and the 78's
Ain’t Gonna Take It Anymore
[Verse 1]
She walked in mean and drunk about a quarter to four
Yeah, she threw down that ring
As she stumbled in through the door
I said, "Girl what is it you're trying to do to me?
I've been workin' like a dog every damn day this week"
Well she said,
"I'm gettin' a lil' tired of you and your runnin' aroun'
I've been diggin' through your phone, boy
And there's a few things I found"
Well, I didn't wait to hear a single word she read, no
I just ran out of that house
Grabbed a bottle of wine, and I said
[Chorus]
"If I'm goin' down tonight, I'm goin' down drinkin'
You spend too much time in this ol' house sittin' and thinkin'
You've been a thorn in my side
Since I walked through the door
And this ol' boy ain't gonna take any more
If I'm goin' down tonight, I'm goin' down drinkin'"
That's right
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Verse 2]
Well I pulled up a stool at the nearest bar I could find
When in walked this chick, damn near struck me blind
And I said, "Girl what is it you're trying to do to me?"
That's when I noticed her husband
Lookin' drunk, crazy and mean
Well he said, "I'm gettin' a lil' tired of you
Starin' my girl up and down
While your suckin' down beers on that stool
Like some drunkin' clown"
Well, I started drinkin' and thinkin'
I should'a stayed home instead, yeah
I grabbed a six-pack to go, ran out of that bar, and I said
