It was a lonely bar room table
Smoky air and cigarettes
Kinda reminded me of the wild, wild west
I said, “Here’s fifty bucks, my friend
Pour me something strong and give
Little miss brunette in the corner a nice stout mix”
‘Cause I couldn’t keep my eyes off of her all night
I’m a little over lettin’ a good one get by
‘Cause I don’t hold my breath sometimes like I should
I don’t waste my time probably like I would
Just about a year ago when I was young, dumb, and broke
You gotta take the chances that you’re given
Even if, even if it’s a longshot
Before I knew it
I was all about you and
My words came out just a little on the shaky side
You gave me some chances
To spit out my name and
It’s crazy to think this is happenin’ to us
‘Cause I don’t hold my breath sometimes like I should
I don’t waste my time probably like I would
Just about a year ago when I was young, dumb, and broke
You gotta take the chances that you’re given
Even if, even if it’s a longshot
You gotta keep it together, my friend
Never let anyone tell you different
Keep it together and then
It takes you back to when
You wouldn’t hold your breath sometimes like you should
You wouldn’t waste your time probably like you would
Just about a year ago when you were young, dumb, and broke
Gotta take the chances that you’re given
Even if, even if it’s a longshot
It’s a longshot
