[Verse 1]
EmThe last note′s hangin' like smoke in the air
My throat still hummin′, sweat in my hair
Band packin' up while we count our pay
N.C.
Then here come a fool come wanderin' my way
EmHe said, "You drink here often or just tonight?"
I said, "Only when I run outta men to fight."
He reached for my hand, tryin′ to make a play
N.C.
I said, "Buy me a drink - then keep it that way."
[Chorus]
AmKeep your distance, sugar
EmI′m tired, not lonely
BmI work alone, I pay my dues
N.C.
And I sleep just fine with my own blues
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
EmLeft that fool standin', headed down the street
Night air coolin′ me down just a beat
Some man by the doorway takin' a drag
N.C.
Starin′ at me like I was somethin' to snag
EmHe said, "Needin′ some company? I'll walk with you."
I said, "Company's fine - long as it ain′t you."
Then his hand slid low like he owned my heat
N.C.
I said, "If your hands wander, so will your teeth."
(Some men don′t know the word 'no′ till it hurts)
[Chorus]
AmKeep your distance, sugar
EmI′m tired, not lonely
BmI work alone, I pay my dues
N.C.
And I sleep just fine with my own blues
[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
N.C.
I make it on home with the dark settlin′ in
Body all sore but my heart tucked in
My old cat waitin' at the door like he do
Purrin′ like he know what I been goin' through
EmI need a stiff drink - not a stiff man
Brush off the day any way that I can
Told the world "kiss it" and went to bed
N.C.
Feels good to rest my own damn head
[Chorus]
AmKeep your distance, sugar
EmI′m tired, not lonely
BmI work alone, I pay my dues
N.C.
And I sleep just fine with my own blues
[Instrumental]
