Don't bother sittin' at my table just because I'm on my own

Yes I'm a woman and I'm lonely but that don't mean I can't be strong

Once again he's not beside me and tonight he won't be coming home

So I just need a place to miss my baby when he goes out to do me wrong

Tonight I wanna do some drinkin' I came to listen to the band

Yes I'm as good as what you're thinkin' but I don't want to hold your hand

And I know I'm lookin' lonely but there's nothing here I want to find

It's just the way of a woman when she goes out to walk the line

Evrery night's a little longer than the one that came before

But when I hear them sing a sad song I know just what I'm cryin' for

I don't want to stay home waitin' don't have to wonder where he's been

He'll be some else's baby before he's in my arms again

Tonight I wanna do some drinkin'...
