Well, it really tears me up when I hear a hurtin' song
And I'm someone who likes a good cold beer
Baby's gone and after hurtin' all day long
My heart feels the need to come in here.

'Cause I need soft lights and hard country music
Those cheatin' songs assure me that her leaving's a real
Yes, I need soft lights and hard country music
A steel guitar in a dimly bar knows exactly how I feel.

Well, the tempo's up the lights're low and I'm a gettin' down
With that woman that I met in here last night
She's hurtin' like I am and we don't give a damn
So play that country music and keep it tight.

'Cause we need soft lights and hard country music
Those cheatin' songs assure me that her leaving's a real
Yes, I need soft lights and hard country music
A steel guitar in a dimly bar knows exactly how I feel.

A steel guitar in a dim lit bar knows exactly how I feel...
