I had one lover in all my life he left me high and dry
But after I cried all my tears I learned how to get by
There's been old friends to ease my pain Jack Daniels to name a few
But I'll be damned if I go home with a Wild Turkey like you

Well, I've been out with Johnny Red George Stickle is on my soul
I'll take him Southern Comfort to me sweet Kentucky beau
And on those cold nights Old Grandad has helped me make it through
But I'll be damned if I go home with a Wild Turkey like you

Well, I have seen some losers who could make a statue cry
But boy if you had feathers I'd swear that you could fly
Yes, I came in here alone and yes I've had a few
But I'll be damned if I go home with a Wild Turkey like you

Don't get the impression that I care about what you do
But when it gets close to Thanksgiving I hide if I were you
Yes, I came in here alone and yes I've had a few
But I'll be damned if I go home with a Wild Turkey like you

But I'll be damned if I go home with a Wild Turkey like you
