I know it happens every time
That I go honkytonking 'round
I find my share in some corners
That I can't talk my way around

I know I've done it all before
I'll probably do it once again
The first time I feel downhearted
I need some ol' good-timin' friend

I'm tryin' to tell it like it is
There's nothing wrong in what I've done
If it's a sin to feel lonesome
Then I'm as guilty as they come

One dance and one drink, babe
That's all that I have had
Well, I'm feeling good, baby
'Cause I ain't been bad

I'm tryin' to tell it like it is
There's nothing wrong in what I've done
If it's a sin to feel lonesome
Then I'm as guilty as they come

I'm tryin' to tell it like it is
There's nothing wrong in what I've done
If it's a sin to feel lonesome
Then I'm as guilty as they come
If it's a sin to feel lonesome
Then I'm as guilty as they come
