I got a little drunk last night There's something 'bout a midnight rain Staring at the ceiling fan I couldn't get you off my brain I guess I wasn't thinking straight I couldn't tell wrong from right I went ahead and called you up I got a little drunk last night I brought it all up, got it all out What is it worth, to both of us now It's off my chest, but never off my mind The two drinks in, hit that hurt, You feel bad, and I feel worse I swear it's the last time every time Don't know why Might've been a song on the radio Might've been nothing, baby I don't know Might've been a little too tired to fight Might've been I got a little drunk last night I got a little too far gone The heart was talking way too loud I don't remember what I said I just remember breaking down I brought it all up, got it all out What is it worth, to both of us now It's off my chest, but never off my mind The two drinks in, hit that hurt, You feel bad, and I feel worse I swear it's the last time every time Don't know why Might've been a song on the radio Might've been nothing, baby I don't know Might've been a girl who looked like you Might've been a fluke, might've been a full moon Might've been a little too tired to fight Might've been I got a little drunk last night Might've been a song on the radio Might've been nothing, baby I don't know Might've been a girl who looked like you Might've been a fluke, might've been a full moon Might've been a little too tired to fight Might've been I got a little drunk Brought it all up, got it all out What is it worth, to both of us now It's off my chest, but never off my mind The two drinks in, hit that hurt, You feel bad, and I feel worse I swear it's the last time every time I got a little drunk last night I got a little drunk last night Thought I could keep it all inside But I got a little drunk last night
