I didn't make it home last night
My car is in the drive
Now I'm lying on the couch in somebody's house
Wondering where I am

I got a pounding head and my cellphone's dead
I can't afford to get a ride 'cause I wasted every dime
On one more spin with Jim
I could be in my own bed if I would throw back less

WHY DIDN'T I THINK OF THAT?


Why do I do all the things I know
Gonna hurt me all down the road?
You'd think by now I would've learned
You keep playing with fire then you gonna get burned
TELL ME, WHY DIDN'T I THINK OF THAT?

On the way to work yesterday
Running 30 minutes late
I had to do a drive-by, I ain't gonna lie
Just to see if you were home

Oh, and there you were, loving all up on her
She was leaning in for a goodbye kiss
I could see you were moving on
You ain't sleeping alone, you ain't gonna be lonely home

WHY DIDN'T I THINK OF THAT?

Why do I do all the things I know
Gonna hurt me all down the road?
You'd think by now I would've learned
You keep playing with fire then you gonna get burned
TELL ME, WHY DIDN'T I THINK OF THAT?

Why do I do all the things I know
Gonna hurt me all down the road?
You'd think by now I would've learned
You keep playing with fire then you gonna get burned
Tell me why didn't I , oh, why didn't I think of that?

She followed you to the moon and back
Loves you with all she has
TELL ME, WHY DIDN'T I THINK OF THAT?
