LyricsNOTHING GOODMark Patterson © 2024 She was temptin' me with a decision to make Inviting me back to her steel trap motel Every fiber of my being screamed it's a mistake But that wise old whisky said oh what the hell It's taken awhile but this much I know If it sounds too good to be true let it go Or dance with the devil's daughter one more time My instincts were telling me Nothing good can come of this Oh what was I thinking Thought we were done with this Said the back seat driver in the back of my mind Nothing good can come of this My judgment may be impaired when I'm drinking Anyone could see Well anyone but me That nothing good would come of it But it sure felt good at the time Everyone knows there's always a catch Ain't no such thing as no strings attached But there I was taking the bait one more time You'd think I would have learned that Nothing good can come of this Oh what was I thinking Thought we were done with this Said the back seat driver in the back of my mind Nothing good can come of this My judgment may be impaired when I'm drinking Anyone could see Well anyone but me That nothing good would come of it But it sure felt good at the time I was sound asleep and got her text last night She wanted company and I fit the bill Alarms went off and there were flashing red lights I tried to decline but I didn't have the will After all this time you'd think I would know I'm just a trick rider in her wild west show But there I was saddling up one more time I could hear the crowd hollerin' Nothing good can come of this Oh what was I thinking Thought we were done with this Said the back seat driver in the back of my mind Nothing good can come of this My judgment may be impaired when I'm drinking Anyone could see Well anyone but me That nothing good would come of it But it sure felt good at the time But it sure felt good at the time Oh it sure felt good at the time Yeah it sure felt good at the time |
