0:14She's gettin' hammered
0:18On Alabama slammers
0:21Three drinks ago no
0:24He wouldn't stand a chance
0:28He's sippin' whiskey
0:31Feelin' confident and frisky
0:34Writes "Slow Hand" on a twenty
0:38And slips it to the band
0:41By the end of the first verse they're out on the floor
0:47By the end of the song they're out the door
0:54Spirits are up inhibitions are down
1:00Same story's unfolding all over town
1:07From the barroom to the bedroom
1:10The path's weathered and worn
1:16This is how illegitimate children are born
1:24So it's his place or hers
1:27Whichever comes first
1:31They're all the way to second base
1:34In the back of the cab
1:37It's hard to resist that liquored up lust
1:44And it's easy to think it might be love
1:51When spirits are up inhibitions are down
1:57Same story's unfolding all over town
2:04From the barroom to the bedroom
2:07The path's weathered and worn
2:13This is how illegitimate children are born
2:21Strangers and slow songs
2:24Barstools and backseats
2:27Lead to bottles and babies
2:31Ask cabbies and barkeeps
2:34When spirits are up inhibitions are down
2:40Same story's unfolding all over town
2:47From the barroom to the bedroom
2:51The path's weathered and worn
2:56This is how illegitimate children are born
3:04Yeah this is how illegitimate children are born
She's gettin' hammered
On Alabama slammers
Three drinks ago  no
He wouldn't stand a chance
He's sippin' whiskey
Feelin' confident and frisky
Writes "Slow Hand" on a twenty
And slips it to the band
By the end of the first verse they're out on the floor
By the end of the song they're out the door
Spirits are up  inhibitions are down
Same story's unfolding all over town
From the barroom to the bedroom
The path's weathered and worn
This is how illegitimate children are born
So it's his place or hers
Whichever comes first
They're all the way to second base
In the back of the cab
It's hard to resist that liquored up lust
And it's easy to think it might be love
When spirits are up  inhibitions are down
Same story's unfolding all over town
From the barroom to the bedroom
The path's weathered and worn
This is how illegitimate children are born
Strangers and slow songs
Barstools and backseats
Lead to bottles and babies
Ask cabbies and barkeeps
When spirits are up  inhibitions are down
Same story's unfolding all over town
From the barroom to the bedroom
The path's weathered and worn
This is how illegitimate children are born
Yeah  this is how illegitimate children are born
