Last night all alone in a Bar Room.
Met a girl with a drink in her hand.
She had ruby red lips, and coal black hair,
and eyes that would tempt any man.
VERSE TWO
Then she came and sat down at my table,
and as she placed her soft hands in mine.
I found myself wanting to kiss her.
For temptation was flowing like wine.
And I was al-most per-suaded to strip myself of my pride.
Al-most per-suaded to push my conscience a-side.
VERSE THREE ( KEY CHANGE TO 'A' )
Then we danced and she whispered I need you.
Take me a-way from here and be my man.
Then I looked into her eyes and I saw it.
The re-flection of my wedding band.
And I was al-most per-suaded to let strange lips lead me on
Al-most per-suaded but your sweet love made me stop and go home
