Give It To Me Strait Lyrics

Bartender I may sit here on this bar stool all night long
But I won't need much attention
I just need some time alone
So if you'll give me some quarters and a bottle of your best
You can just sit back and let the jukebox do the rest

Give It To Me Strait
Sing "Am I Blue" while I sit here and cry
And tell me how my baby's gotten so good at goodbye
It's gonna take a fireman to put this old flame out
So come on give it to me Strait
Before I come unwound

Let's start off nice and easy
Something like "If I Know Me"
And we'll work our way up slowly to "Fool Hearted Memory"
Yeah I've got all night long to sit right here and fall apart
So don't leave out one single song
I know 'em all by broken heart

Give it to me Strait
Sing "Am I Blue"
While I sit here and cry
And tell me how my baby's gotten so good at goodbye
It's gonna take a fireman to put this old flame out
So come on give it to me Strait
Before I come unwound

There ain't one country singer
That ain't good for a bad heartache
And for me there's nothing smoother
Than a good stiff shot of Strait

It's gonna take a fireman to put this old flame out
So come on give it to me Strait
Before I come unwound
So come on give it to me Strait
Before I come unwound

Give It To Me Strait

From the title of the song to the lyrics (which contain references to specific songs), this is very obviously a tribute to fellow country singer George Strait. Songs referenced include "Am I Blue," "Baby's Gotten Good at Goodbye," "The Fireman," "If I Know Me," "Fool Hearted Memory" and "Unwound." (thanks, Beau - Phoenix, AZ)

Not a Moment Too Soon was #1 on the Billboard Country chart for 26 weeks and was the best-selling Country album in 1994.
