Courage To Go Home

Here I sit all alone in this barroom
Any other Friday night I would be home
But I nearly lost my whole week's check on a horse named can't-go-wrong
No I don't think I've a courage to go home
For my little girl's been waiting for that new dress with pretty bows
And I promised Johnny he could spend the evening at the show
Not to mention my sweet Mary could be worried sick cause I'm still gone
But I don't think I've a courage to go home
[ fiddle ]
I left that track with just five dollars in my pocket
Just enough to drown my troubles I've been told
But if the strenght I'm needin' don't come from this bottle that I hold
I don't think I'll have a courage to go home
For my little girl's been waiting...
No I don't think I've a courage to go home
