I ain't a poet, we both know it
But, baby, you deserve a song, so I wrote this
Had to get my head right, make sure to say it right
So I pulled into the dive next to a red light

Did a little drinkin', did a little thinkin'
'Bout how you're all I need
Sittin' on this stool, lookin' 'round this room
Thought if you weren't mine, I'd be

A bar without a beer, a lake without a jon boat
Little farm town without a single backroad
Honeycomb without any honey
Like a bank all out of money
An old jukebox without a little Whitley
Lookin' at the neon light, it just hit me
Me without you just wouldn't be right
If you ever left, baby, I would be like
A bar without a beer
Oh, yeah

You're the only one I wanna sing about
Your lovin' in these Miller Lites you're bringin' out
That hopeless, redneck, romantic side of me
Girl, I don't ever wanna be

A bar without a beer, a lake without a jon boat
Little farm town without a single backroad
Honeycomb without any honey
Like a bank all out of money
An old jukebox without a little Whitley
Lookin' at the neon light, it just hit me
Me without you just wouldn't be right
If you ever left, baby, I would be like
A bar without a beer
A bar without a beer
Oh, yeah
Like a bar without a beer

Like a bar without an ice cold beer
Like the one I'm sippin' on right here
Without you, I'd be a Friday night, no lights
'Bama, no Roll Tide
Let me make it moonshine clear

I'd be a bar without a beer, a lake without a jon boat
Little farm town without a single backroad
Honeycomb without any honey
Girl, forgive me if I sound too country
An old jukebox without a little Whitley
Lookin' at the neon light, it just hit me
Me without you just wouldn't be right
If you ever left, baby, I would be like
A bar without a beer
A bar without a beer
Oh, yeah
Like a bar without a beer
