One Too Many

Buddy Cagle

Compositor: Curtis Leach / Don Sessions

How many times have you had one too many
And said things that had long been on your mind
The next day you were sorry till the next time
That one drink brought the past back to mine

Then one too often I had one too many
I finally broke her heart beyond repair
At the time I think I knew that I'd be sorry
But I had one too many to care

One too many times I've hurt her and she left me
Now walking any tavern I'll be there
Sitting all alone at the table having one too many to care
[ steel ]
One too many times I've hurt her...
