Ain't How It Ends

[Verse 1]

Ain't it a shame, girl

That we had it all almost?

Now, there's no other way, girl

That's just the way love goes

'Cause Waylon, Willie, Jones, and Whitley, they made all the rules

So I'll just have me one more whiskey right here on this stool

[Chorus]

Baby, I could put the bottle down

You could say you wanna come back home

I could leave this bar right now

You could meet me at the door with nothin' on

We can find a way to work this out

Aw, but, girl, it would feel so wrong

No comin' back 'cause, baby, that ain't how it ends in a country song

(Ain't how it ends) In a country song

(Ain't how it ends)

[Verse 2]

You gotta have some taillights

The kind that don't turn around

Aw, baby, it ain't right

If we change our minds right now

'Cause Hank and Johnny, Strait, and Ronniе Dunn made all the rules

Thе girl gets gone, guy ties one on, like he's s'posed to do

[Chorus]

Baby, I could put the bottle down

You could say you wanna come back home

I could leave this bar right now

You could meet me at the door with nothin' on

We can find a way to work this out

Aw, but, girl, it would feel so wrong

No comin' back 'cause, baby, that ain't how it ends in a country song

(Ain't how it ends) In a country song

(Ain't how it ends)

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]

Baby, I could put the bottle down

You could say you wanna come back home

I could leave this bar right now

You could meet me at the door with nothin' on

We can find a way to work this out

Aw, baby, it would feel so wrong

No comin' back, 'cause, baby, that ain't how it ends in a country song

(Ain't how it ends) In a country song

(Ain't how it ends) Ain't how it ends in a country song

(Ain't how it ends) Ain't how it ends in a country song

(Ain't how it ends) In a country song
