Well she started with a margarita
Then she went to straight tequila
And before the night was over oh
Her little secret was between us
But she laughed I cried
And she said "I'll be fine "
Now she's barely walking and I'm thinking
Wonder how long she's been drinking like this
She looks me in the eye and says "I swear I'm quitting "
I almost believed it
Then she cried but she lies
'Cause that's what she said last Saturday night
How am I suppose to help
Somebody when they tell you
That they don't need help
How am I suppose to reach a soul
That doesn't know they need to save themselves
My friend I've done all I can do
You've got to
Help me help you 101861,-659)
Oh I get home from work
I turn the TV on
The telephone's a ringing
Her little girl is crying
Says "I can't wake mama up from sleeping "
Well I burned that road
Opened up the door she says
"Leave me alone "
How am I suppose to help
Somebody when they tell you
That they don't need help
How am I suppose to reach a soul
That doesn't know they need to save themselves
My friend I've done all I can do
You've got to
Help me help you
It's been 4 years and now I stand
In the back of the room
She said "I started with a margarita
Then I went to straight tequila "
12 steps 4 years and 27 days
And now I stand before 202861,-39)you
