[Verse 1]
We can talk about the deer that you killed last year up in Illinois
Anything from the Lakers to the Cowboys
Have the fish been bitin' today?
Talk 'til the jukebox runs out of Hank
Politics, religion, man, anything, I don't care
That girl over there with the blonde hair
Small talk while we paint this town
I just don't wanna talk about

[Chorus]
Why I'm here and why she ain't
Just wanna pour beer on an ol' heartbreak
Drink 'em outta José and shoot 'em outta limes
Maybe kiss a stranger in the neon light
Buddy, I know that you're tryna help
Just don't remind me I'm goin' through hell
If I get enough in me, man, I might just crack
But right now, she's a story for another glass

[Verse 2]
'Causе if I hear her name, man, I'll spiral down
Shе's probably seein' somebody new right now
Out tonight in a dress I like
So keep it light and don't ask

[Chorus]
Why I'm here and why she ain't
Just wanna pour beer on an ol' heartbreak
Drink 'em outta José and shoot 'em outta limes
Maybe kiss a stranger in the neon light
Buddy, I know that you're tryna help
Just don't remind me I'm goin' through hell
If I get enough in me, man, I might just crack
But right now, she's a story for another glass

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
There's a thousand roads that I can go on down, down, down
It's just one that I can't do right now, now, now

[Chorus]
It's why I'm here and why she ain't
Just wanna pour beer on an ol' heartbreak
Drink 'em outta José and shoot 'em outta limes
Maybe kiss a stranger in the neon light
Buddy, I know that you're tryna help
Just don't remind me I'm goin' through hell
If I get enough in me, man, I might just crack
But right now, she's a story for another glass

[Outro]
Yeah, another glass
Yeah, we might get to that
But right now she's a story for another glass

After almost 15 years at the top of his format, reigning ACM “Artist of the Decade” Jason Aldean has seen trends come and go. Hell, he helped bring a few out of the shadows, like a Country-music Columbus making the mainstream’s first contact with hard rock (“Hicktown”), hip-hop (“Dirt Road Anthem”), and R&B (“Burnin’ It Down”). For 9, Aldean’s ninth studio project, he offers 16 interwoven tracks in an era of stand-alone singles and superstar EPs, holding his ground for a modern album with an old-school soul. A three-time ACM Entertainer of the Year, Aldean’s a card-carrying member of the Country’s elite headliners whose incendiary tours are nearing legendary status. Also a dominant force on the charts, he’s scored 23 Number Ones and notably, all eight of Aldean’s previous studio albums have been certified Gold or Platinum by the RIAA. He’s the only Country act in history to top the all-genre Billboard 200 four times (in a row, no less), racking up four billion streams and more than 18 million albums sold along the way.
