Merle Haggard - Almost Persuaded lyrics

Last night, all alone in a barroom I met a girl with a drink in her hand She had ruby red lips and coal black hair And a smile that would tempt any man. Then she came and sat down at my table And as she placed her soft hands on mine I found myself wanting to kiss her For temptation was flowing like wine. And I was almost persuaded To strip myself of my pride Almost persuaded To push my conscience aside. Then we danced and she whispered I need you take me away from here and be my man Then I looked into her eyes and I saw it The reflection of my wedding band. And I was almost persuaded To let strange lips lead me on Almost persuaded but your sweet love Made me stop and go home...
