show me a bar with a good lookinī woman
then just get out of my way
turn on the jukebox, iīll show you a song you should play
sooner a later a few shots of bourbon
and iīll think of somethinī to say
whoa, i can take her or leave her
iīd like to take her away

liquor and music, a good combination
if youīve got love on the brain
i never knew two women who acted the same
some want a drink first, and some want to just sit and talk
whoa, oh, itīs two in the morninī, iīm runninī and she wants to walk

somethinīs got a hold on me
itīs cheap but it ainīt free
love or somethinī like itīs got a hold on me

thatīs when i asked her, my place or your place
i hope iīm not out of line
i asked the wrong thing, but just the right woman this time
she knew a hotel, she even had a name we could sign
whoa, oh, the cheaper the grapes are, the sweeter the taste of the wine

somethinīs got a hold on me
itīs cheap but it ainīt free
love or somethinī like itīs got a hold on me

somethinīs got a hold on me
itīs cheap but it ainīt free
love or somethinī like itīs got a hold on me
love or somethinī damn near like itīs got a hold on me
