Lyric

You walked in talkin’ loud again

Like this whole damn mess was my sin

Bottle in your hand, fire in your eyes

Lookin’ for someone to blame tonight

I ain’t the one who lit that fuse

I ain’t the one got nothin’ to prove

You keep pushin’, I step aside

Ain’t gonna take that ride

You can shout, you can scream my name

But I ain’t playin’ that same old game

Don’t put that on me

I ain’t carryin’ your weight tonight

Don’t put that on me

I ain’t lookin’ for a fight

Take your trouble down the line

Leave that mess where it belongs

Don’t put that on me—

I ain’t where your blame belongs

Neon flickers, tension grows

Same old story everybody knows

One wrong word and it’s goin’ down

Whole damn bar gonna shake this town

I seen it once, I seen it twice

Same old fire, same old vice

But I ain’t fallin’ in that hole

I got control

You can push, but I won’t break

Ain’t your mess for me to take

Don’t put that on me

I ain’t carryin’ your weight tonight

Don’t put that on me

I ain’t lookin’ for a fight

Take your trouble down the line

Leave that mess where it belongs

Don’t put that on me—

I ain’t where your blame belongs

You made your bed, you lay it down

Don’t drag me through your battleground

I walk away, that’s how I win

Ain’t gonna let you pull me in

Don’t put that on me

I ain’t carryin’ your weight tonight

Don’t put that on me

I ain’t lookin’ for a fight

Take your trouble down the line

Leave that mess where it belongs

Don’t put that on me—

I ain’t singin’ your sad song
