As Good as I Once Was
Lyrics
She said I've seen you in here before
I said I've been here a time or two
She said hello my name is Bobbi Jo
Meet my twin sister Betty Lou
And we're both feeling kinda wild tonight
You're the only cowboy in this place
If your up for a rodeo
I'll put a big Texas smile on your face
I said girls
I ain't as good as I once was
I got a few years on me now
But there was a time
Back in my prime
When I could really lay it down
If you need some love tonight
Then I might have just enough
I ain't as good once was
But I'm as good once, as I ever was
I still hang out with my best friend Dave
I've known him since we were kids at school
Last night he had a few shots
Got in a tight spot
Hustling a game of pool
With a couple of red neck boys
And one great big fat biker man
I heard David yell across the room
Hey Buddy how bout a helping hand
I said Dave
I ain't as good as I once was
My how the years have flown
But there was a time
Back in my prime
When I could really hold my own
But if you want a fight tonight
Guess those boys don't look all that tough
I ain't as good once was
But I'm as good once, as I ever was
I used to be hell on wheels
Back when I was a younger man
Now my body says "Oh, You can't do this boy"
But my pride says "Oh yes you can"
I ain't as good as I once was
That's just the cold, hard truth (huh)
I still throw a few back
Talk a little smack
When I'm feeling bullet proof
So don't double, dog dare me now
Cause I'd have to call your bluff
I ain't as good as I once once was
But I'm as good once, as I ever was
May not be good as I once was
But I'm as good once, as I ever was
