Stayin' Out Late (Cory Morrow)

Stayin' out late in a honky tonk bar Findin' new ways to be untrue Drinkin' my way through this month's rent Seems to be the best I can do Drunk and enraged and I'm showin' my age I dreamt away my money and my mind No woman to call wife, I got no home to spend my life And no desire for either at this time I'm showin' no signs of growin' up at any time I keep a firm grasp upon my youth And the subtlety of love is something I know nothing of And I have got no concept of the truth Stayin' out late in a honky tonk bar Findin' new ways to be untrue Drinkin' my way through this month's rent Seems to be the best I can do It's all a matter of where your going I don't know where I'm going from here Desperate ways seem to control my everyday And it's hard to understand why I run But this poet's dance is my last chance To lay down my pen and show you how it's done Stayin' out late in a honky tonk bar Findin' new ways to be untrue Drinkin' my way through this month's rent Seems to be the best I can do Yeah it seems to be the best I can do
