Tonight I'm Playin' Possum (Duet with Joe Nichols)

I'm gonna need a strong one, it's gonna be a long one

In case you haven't heard he stopped loving her today

So I'm dusting off the vinyl, it's gonna be an all-nighter

I'm warning you now, from here on out, boys, I'll be the DJ

So find a drink or find a road

I'm 'bout to drop a needle on some Ol' no show

You're gonna want an ashtray and a bottle

I'm going deep

I'm going long 'til I run

That needle through every last song

He ever sung, so pour 'em strong

And smoke 'em if you got 'em

Tonight I'm playing Possum

I'll bet he'd step right up singing, right now he's bringing

Every angel in that house up there to tears

So close the doors and lock 'em up

And if you see me choking up

Just dim the light cause boys

Tonight what happens here stays here

So find a drink or find a road,

I'm 'bout to drop a needle on some ol' no show

You're gonna want an ashtray and a bottle

I'm going deep,

I'm going long 'til I run

That needle through every last song

He ever sung so pour 'em strong

And smoke 'em if you got 'em

Boys, tonight I'm playing Possum

Bartender's Blues and Why Baby Why

Who's Gonna Fill Their Shoes, Still Doing Time

I'm going deep,

I'm going long 'til I run

That needle through every last song

He ever sung, so pour 'em strong

And smoke 'em if you got 'em

Tonight I'm playing Possum

Tonight I'm playing Possum

I'm gonna need a strong one

It's gonna be a long one

In case you haven't heard

He stopped loving her today
