Verse 1:
I know I ain’t perfect, honey,
You’ve seen me act a fool,
But when I’m on this whiskey train,
I’m playin’ fast and loose.
You’re packin’ up your suitcase,
With that tired look in your eye,
But darlin’, do me one last favor,
Wait till I say goodbye.
Chorus:
Do me the favor of not leavin’ until I’m sober,
I know you’ve had enough, but girl, just hold your composure.
I swear I’ll be a better man, once this buzz clears my mind,
Just give me ‘til tomorrow mornin’, then you can leave me behind.
Verse 2:
You’re rolling your eyes, and I don’t blame you,
I’ve been a handful tonight,
But girl, the tequila was sneaky,
It’s been playin’ tricks on my pride.
I know I said some stupid things,
That probably sealed my fate,
But can’t you wait ‘til I’m sober,
Before you drive out that gate?
Chorus:
Do me the favor of not leavin’ until I’m sober,
I know you’ve got one foot out the door, but baby, wait it over.
I swear I’ll make it up to you when I get my head on straight,
Just give me ‘til the morning light, then you can start your escape.
Bridge:
I’m beggin’ on my knees, but please ignore the swayin’,
It’s not just love that’s got me fallin’, it’s the bourbon I’ve been playin’.
I’ll make you breakfast, coffee strong, we’ll laugh about tonight,
Just promise you’ll still be around when my mind’s clear and bright.
Chorus:
Do me the favor of not leavin’ until I’m sober,
I know I’ve been a wreck, but baby, give me one more shoulder.
I swear I’ll quit the bottle, turn this life around for good,
But wait ‘til I’m sober, honey, then you can leave like you should.
Outro:
So let me sleep it off, I’ll be fine by break of day,
Just don’t leave me in this whiskey haze, I’d hate to see you stray.
I promise once the hangover hits, I’ll let you make your choice,
Just don’t make me face the heartbreak with a drunken voice.
