Well it's 10 pm and all the ladies are looking fine
I'd rather trade off my old steel guitar
Just to taste her sweet red wine.
Cause I'm a rusty boy with a nasty toy
That would be my heart,
Just a few shots of that Yukon Jack
You might be my sweet push start.
Chorus
It's just another hopeful night
For a hopeless guy.
It's just another hopeful night
For a hopeless guy.
Well I stepped out on that dance floor
I smelled honey in the air
When I spotted that queen of diamonds
With her ultraviolet stare
I said hey easy come easy go it's my latest groove,
But it don't make things much easier when some are born to lose.
Chorus
Well I sat down at my buddy's table
And I bought another round
They say it's better off to go and loosen up
Before you run and get shut down.
So I made my move across that room
To my sweet little sugar pie
I winked and I asked her for a dance
She said I could make you fly.
She said my boyfriend's here and
It really would be nice,
But he doesn't want me dancing with you hopeless guys.
Chorus
Well I grabbed her hand and I kissed her cheek
Man I sure did fly, but it was out across
That dance floor with her boyfriend and two black eyes.
It was an easy come but a tougher go
But I guess that's nothing new
As that s*** waitress iced my head
Someone tell me this is true.
I'm getting really sick and tired
Of this hopeless fight,
I'm just another hopeless guy on a lucky night.
