I ain't had

nothin' to drink

I knew that's probably

what you'd think..
IfI dropped by

this time of night
Remember way back When

I promised you

I'd drop in..
At one of

those meetings

down at the 'Y'..
They started talkin'
'bout the steps you take
Mistakes you make

The hearts you break
You could hear a pin drop
When this old man
Stood up and said

I'm gonna say it again..
It's the simple

things in life
Like the kids at home

And a lovin' Wife..
And every thing you love
Starts to disappear
The devil takes your hand

And says no fear..
Have another shot
Just one more beer
Yeah, I've been there

That's Why I'm here...
This old boy

stood up in the aisle
Said he'd been livin'

a life of deniaL
And he cried

As he talked about

wasted years..
I couldn't believe

what I heard

It was my life

word for word..
And all of a sudden

It was clear
It's the simple

things in life
Like the kids at home

And a lovin' Wife..
And every thing you love
starts to disappear
The devil takes your hand

And says no fear..
Have another shot
Just one more beer
Yeah, I've been there

That's Why I'm here..
But it would mean
the world to me

If you were there

When I stand and say..
It's the simple

things in life
Like the kids at home

And a lovin' Wife..
And every thing you love
starts to disappear
The devil takes your hand

And says no fear..
Have another shot
Just one more beer
Yeah, I've been there

That's Why I'm here..
Oh, I've been there

That's Why I'm here...
