Well I woke up this morning
to a busted up room
Some half empty bottles
and a half written tune
I stacked up the papers
and I cleaned up the mess
I don't know what happened
but I got a good guess
I must have stayed up all night again drinking
Heart broke and singing the blues
But don't be surprised you know it ain't the first time
I stayed up all night again writing a song about you
I called up your number
and I just let it ring
Nobody answered, so I called it again
And then I pulled out that bottle,
filled up a glass
rescued a wrinkled up page from the trash
Then I stayed up all night again drinking
Heart broke and singing the blues
But don't be surprised you know it ain't the first time
I stayed up all night again writing a song about you
But don't worry about me
Cause I'll be alright
Maybe I'll write a number one,
one of these nights
And you can tell all your friends
that it's all about you
But until then I know just what to do
I'll stay up all night again drinking
Heart broke and singing the blues
But don't be surprised you know it ain't the first time
I stayed up all night again writing a song about you
I stayed up all night again writing a song about you
