I Hate To See You Go

how are you ever going to know
unless you walk right up and spill your guts
tell her how you would follow her
as long as it's not too far away from the bar

tuck in that shirt, fix your collar
give the ol' barkeep a holler
another story about the good ole days
and the one that got away

sewing all your wild oats time and time again
sooner or later she's gonna know exactly where you've been
but she won't like how long it costs or lasts
boy she's already gone screamin' down the path

another day one less dollar
give the ol' barkeep a holler
another story about the good ole days
and the one that got away

oh, i hate to see her go
but nothing i say could make her stay
and i swear i didn't know
that she was looking for a way

to walk out that door and wave good bye
to go out and find herself another guy
another story about the good ole days
and the one that got away
