show me a bar with a good lookin woman
then just get out of my way
turn on the jukebox, i'l show you a song you should play
sooner a later a few shots of bourbon
and i'l think of somethinto say
whoa, i can take her or leave her
i like to take her away

liquor and music, a good combination
if you'e got love on the brain
i never knew two women who acted the same
some want a drink first, and some want to just sit and talk
whoa, oh, it two in the mornin i runninand she wants to walk

somethin got a hold on me
it cheap but it ain' free
love or somethinlike it got a hold on me

that when i asked her, my place or your place
i hope i not out of line
i asked the wrong thing, but just the right woman this time
she knew a hotel, she even had a name we could sign
whoa, oh, the cheaper the grapes are, the sweeter the taste of the wine

somethin' got a hold on me
it' cheap but it ain' free
love or somethinlike it' got a hold on me

somethin got a hold on me
it cheap but it ain' free
love or somethinlike it got a hold on me
love or somethindamn near like it' got a hold on me
