Well never trust a woman drinkin' whiskey

That lights her own cigarette

A corner booth where the lights got dim 
 
Em 
We started talkin' 'bout gettin' real close 
 
D 
About how, and about when

It started rainin' harder and harder

  It just ain't worthwhile'

G 
I turned around and gave her one last smile

And maybe something I couldn't resist
