[Intro]
(Please baby, wait for me)
Until they let me out again

[Verse 1]
I got loaded last night on a bottle o' gin
And I had a fight with my best girlfriend
Cause when I'm drinkin', I ain't nobody's friend
Please, baby, wait for me until they let me out again

[Verse 2]
I know the same thing has happened before
And every time it does, I hate it more and more
But when I'm drinkin', ain't nobody's friend
Please, baby, wait for me until they let me out again

[Chorus]
I spend a whole lotta time sittin' and thinkin'
Sittin' and just thinkin' 'bout you
If I didn't spend so much time sittin' and drinkin'
We'd still have the love that we once knew

[Verse 3]
I won't promise the same thing won't happen again
But I can promise it'll be a long, long time till then
'Cause when I'm drinkin', ain't nobody's friend
Please, baby, wait for me until they let me out again

[Outro]
Please, baby, wait for me until they let me out again
