I walked into that same old bar, my boots were worn and slow
The jukebox played a lonesome tune I used to dance to long ago
The neon lights were flickerin’, like the dreams I left behind
And the barkeep poured me heartache in a glass of homemade wine

So play me one more song for the road
About a girl who left and a heart that never healed
Let that steel guitar cry soft and low
While I chase the ghost of love I used to feel
One more song, then I’ll go—
But not before the bottle’s low

Her lipstick’s still on my cigarette, though she’s been gone for years
And every night I sit and toast her name with country tears
The stool beside me’s always free, but I still hold it tight
For the memory of the only thing that ever felt just right

So play me one more song for the road
About a girl who left and a heart that never healed
Let that steel guitar cry soft and low
While I chase the ghost of love I used to feel
One more song, then I’ll go—
But not before the bottle’s low

Tell the band to slow it down, let the fiddle take the lead
‘Cause I ain’t in a hurry to leave this pain I need

Yeah, play me one more song for the road
Let it bleed like whiskey through my soul
I’ll tip my hat, I’ll pay what I owe—
But not before the bottle’s low
