jim wolfe - i knew i was in trouble lyrics
[verse 1]
on a cold winter’s evening in a bar room in kentucky
i went in to hear the band and find some winter heat
they were playin’ charlie daniels and sounded mighty fine
when i looked out on the dance floor, my heart skipped a beat
[pre+chorus]
she was out there by herself, she was dancing all alone
her boots were made of ‘gator, and her hair was black as coal
my heart was a mess, she looked so s+xy in that black dress
i knew i was in trouble at that backwoods water hole
[chorus]
i knew i was in trouble
shoulda left there on the double
i shoulda but i didn’t
i had to make a play
i knew i was in trouble
but would she burst my bubble
i shoulda left that honky tonk
but i made my mind to stay
[verse 2]
when the band was down at breaktime it seemed like a good time
to introduce myself to her that lit my heart on fire
well i think the bartender knew i wanted to befriend her
but he just shook his head and i started to perspire
[pre+chorus]
i took a whisky to her table and i sat down right beside her
i said i liked her dancing and those ’gator boots she wore
she looked at me and took a drink but never said a word
i felt a rush of cold air comin’ thru the door
[chorus]
i knew i was in trouble
shoulda left there on the double
i shoulda but i didn’t
i had to make a play
i knew i was in trouble
but would she burst my bubble
i shoulda left that honky tonk
but i made my mind to stay
[verse 3]
well next thing i remember, her eyes were lookin’ past me
i turned round at that table and looked at the dance floor
he was 6 foot 6 and angry, i made a quick decision
i grabbed my hat, i made myself a beeline for the door
[pre+chorus]
that’s the end of this story ’bout a bar room in kentucky
a local honky tonk just as smoky little dive
i went in for a drink, i was hopin’ to get lucky
but by the time i left, i was glad to be alive
[chorus]
i knew i was in trouble
shoulda left there on the double
i shoulda but i didn’t
i had to make a play
i knew i was in trouble
but would she burst my bubble
i shoulda left that honky tonk
but i made my mind to stay
[outro]
when i finally left that honky tonk
i was glad to get away
