Almost Persuaded
Tammy Wynette

(Billy Sherrill/Glenn Sutton)


Last night, all alone in a bar room

Met a man with a drink in his hand

He had baby-blue eyes, coal black hair

And a smile that a girl understands.


Then he came and sat down at my table

And as he placed his hand over mine

I found myself wanting to kiss him

For temptation was flowing like wine.


And I was almost persuaded

To strip myself of my pride

Almost persuaded

To push my conscience aside.


Then we danced and he whispered, I need you!

Let me take you away, and be your man.

Then I looked into his eyes and I saw it

The reflection of my wedding band.


And I was almost persuaded

To let strange lips lead me on

Almost persuaded,

But your sweet love made me stop and go home.
