Help Me Help You Lyrics

Help Me Help You lyrics

Well, she started with a margarita

Then she went to straight tequila

And before the night was over, oh

Her little secret was between us

But she laughed, I cried

And she said, "I'll be fine."

Now she's
barely walking and I'm thinking

Wonder how long she's been drinking, like
this

She looks me in the eye and says, "I swear I'm quitting."

I
almost believed it

Then she cried but she lies

'Cause that's what
she said last Saturday night



[Chorus:]

How am I suppose to
help

Somebody when they tell you

That they don't need help

How am I suppose to reach a soul

That doesn't know they need to save
themselves

My friend, I've done all I can do

You've got to

Help me, help you



Oh, I get home from work

I turn the TV
on

The telephone's a ringing

Her little girl is crying

Says,
"I can't wake mama up from sleeping."

Well, I burned that road

Opened up the door, she says,

"Leave me alone."



[Repeat
Chorus]



It's been 4 years and now I stand

In the back of the
room

She said, "I started with a margarita

Then I went to straight
tequila."

12 steps, 4 years, and 27 days

And now I stand before
you

Help me, help you
