drinks were so big for ten so damn small

he lost his ambitions for the one girl he loved

and he had a family

some kids and a home

and just like his man that left him long ago

when he has a problem

he turns to her guilty

he grew up near austin and he moved to the big city

began wedding tables and serving them bottles

but they started drinking them too

she's the one thing that he can't get

away from he's tried his whole life

but she's there on the table

and he goes for her and follows with a chaser

then turns to the lord

and prays for a savior

and he'll come around

cause his soul's just been found

and he's gonna make his mama proud

and it's hard to give in

but i know that he will

cause romance was a dream and she was a pill

and now he's on a way to turn around

he swear he'll never take it underground

and i saw him empty the cabinet

and then he went and called his kids

tell him that he's coming back

he's a different man and a better dad

his chips looking over him now

oh when he has a problem

he turns to her guilty

he grew up near austin and he moved to the big city

began waiting tables and serving them bottles

but they started drinking at two

oh she's the one thing that he can't get

away from he's tried his whole life

but she's there on the table

and he goes for her

and follows with a chaser

then turns to the lord

and prays for a savior

and he'll come around

cause his soul's just been found

he's gonna make his mama proud

and it's hard to give in

but i know that he will

cause romance was a trick

she was a pill

he let it go and took time to heal

cause romance was a dream and she was a pill
