Now maybe I wouldn't drink but for that woman
She warned me if I didn't stop she was going to fly
Well she didn't give me long to think it over
And the lesser of two evils said goodbye

Now the whole thing got started back when I was sober
She didn't know it but I saw her loving on some other guy
Well she laughed at me when I got drunk and told her
Then the lesser of two evils said goodbye

That woman and this wine put the big hurt on me
That I was just taking my time
Just deciding which one would it be
Yes, which one did I need the most
I couldn't make up my mind
Then the lesser of two evils said goodbye
Then the lesser of two evils said goodbye
