Whatever Gets You Through the Night

[Verse 1]
Bad cups of coffee, old Haggard songs
A rolled-down window on a road that's too damn long
A blur of broken white lines and flashing neon signs
Truck stops off the highway where the waitress wears a smile
In case you haven't seen one at home in quite a while
It all comes down to whatever gets you through the night

[Verse 2]
Another cheap motel room with the curtains drawn
You like the conversation so you leave the TV on
Read the Bible on the nightstand looking for a little light
Kill a couple beers, and it that doesn't work
That smooth Kentucky bourbon will burn 'til it don't hurt
It all comes down to whatever get you through the night

[Chorus 1]
I guess that's why you're calling, 'cause tonight you need a friend
Or at least someone to hold you, someone who understands
When it comes to bein' lonely, there ain't no wrong or right
Whatever gets you through the night

[Chorus 2]
The key's in the mailbox, the porch light is on
I know I'll fall apart in the morning when you're gone
When it comes to bein' lonely, there ain't no wrong or right
Whatever gets you through the night
