Sober Up

We've been drunk all night, and I've been sayin' way too much
So if you're gonna shoot me down, just do it 'fore I sober up
'Cause the lights are turnin' on, and, baby, now it's only us
So if you're gonna turn back now, just do it 'fore I sober up

I was fine sippin' whiskey by myself Friday night
'Til I saw you standin' there, hair down, no gown
Singin' loud to James Brown
Off-key, but you didn't seem to mind
So I stepped in your direction with two shots of Jack and Jim
Told you, "Pick your poison", but you took both
Two more turned into Cuervo
We were gettin' lost and losin' track of time

Now the crowd is disappearin'
But our tab still isn't closed
So I'm wonderin' when you're leavin'
Will you leave me all alone?

We've been drunk all night, and I've been sayin' way too much
So if you're gonna shoot me down, just do it 'fore I sober up
'Cause the lights are turnin' on, and, baby, now it's only us
So if you're gonna turn back now, just do it 'fore I sober up

Please don't mess me up (ooh)
'Til I sober up

Yeah, I tend to handle rejection with handles
I put all my problems on ice
Take the parts I don't speak of and mix with tequila
In case you say everything twice, yeah
I could use a little holy water on me
'Cause Lord knows that I've been stone-cold drinkin'
But then I see you on a barstool, lonely
And that's when I let it sink in

Now the crowd is disappearin'
But our tab still isn't closed
So I'm wonderin' when you're leavin'
Will you leave me all alone?

We've been drunk all night, and I've been sayin' way too much
So if you're gonna shoot me down, just do it 'fore I sober up
'Cause the lights are turnin' on, and, baby, now it's only us
So if you're gonna turn back now, just do it 'fore I sober up

Please don't mess me up (ooh)
'Til I sober up (ooh)
Please don't mess me up (ooh)
'Til I sober up
