I May Hate Myself in the Morning Lyrics

Ain't it just like one of us
To pick up the phone
And call after a couple of
Drinks,
And say,
"How you been?
I been wonderin'
That maybe you've been thinkin' 'bout me."
And somewhere in the conversation,
An old familiar invitation always arrives,
An' I May Hate Myself in the Morning,
But I'm gonna love you tonight.

Everyone's known someone
That they just can't help but want,
And even though we just can't make it work out,
Well the want-to lingers on.
So once again we wind up in each other's arms,
Pretending that it's right,
An' I may hate myself in the morning,
But I'm gonna love you tonight.

I know it's wrong,
But it ain't easy moving on.
So why can't two friends remember the good times once again?

Tomorrow when I wake up,
I'll be feeling a little guilty, an' a little sad,
Thinkin' how it used to be before everything went bad.
An' I guess that's what it is,
In lonely late night calls like this, that we try to find
An' I may hate myself in the morning,
But I'm gonna love you tonight.

I may hate myself in the morning,
But I'm gonna love you tonight.

I May Hate Myself in the Morning

This was released in October 2004 as the leadoff single from Lee Ann Womack's album There's More Where That Came From. The song was a Top 10 hit on both the US and Canadian Country charts and also peaked at #66 on the Hot 100.

The ballad finds the narrator about to have a night of passion with a man aware of the consequences of how she'll feel when she wakes up in the morning. Womack told The Mirror: "This is the kind of stuff I grew up listening to. How true is this song? Even if you haven't been in that situation, we all know somebody who has. It's just honest."

The song was written by Odie Blackmon. "I wrote that one by myself," he told Roughstock . "That was a true story. It was something I was going through at the time. I was actually living in a house that was a duplex next door to the girl I wrote the song about."

"It has become a sticky situation," Blackmon added. "That song poured out in 30 minutes. One morning, I was just down about the whole deal, and I didn't have a co-write, but I had a guitar. It just kind of poured out. I sat there looking at it on the page while playing my cassette back, going man ... I think this is really, really good."

The song won the prize for Best Single at the 2005 Country Music Awards.
