[00:00.00]Almost Persuaded - David Houston
[00:02.07]Last night all alone in a barroom
[00:10.17]Met a girl with a drink in her hand
[00:17.40]She had ruby red lips coal black hair
[00:25.66]And eyes that would tempt any man
[00:33.41]Then she came and sat down at my table
[00:40.97]As she placed her soft hands in mine
[00:49.20]I found myself wanting to kiss her
[00:56.79]For temptation was flowing like wine
[01:04.60]And I was almost persuaded to strip myself of my pride
[01:21.40]Almost persuaded to push my conscience aside
[01:35.97]Then we danced and she whispered"I need you
[01:43.72]Take me away from here and be my man"
[01:51.79]Then I looked into her eyes and saw it
[01:59.85]The reflection of my wedding band
[02:07.35]And I was almost persuaded to let strange lips lead me on
[02:23.42]Almost persuaded
[02:30.60]But your sweet love made me stop and go home
