Is that an Ole Miss Rebel tat
Sittin' right there on her lower back?
Yeah, it is
Is that a wedding band turned upside down
'Cause she don't wanna show it 'round?
Yeah, it is
Is that a picture of her kids
On the key ring of her Benz?
Yeah, it is
Is that a woman sittin' on a stool
Cryin' over some damn fool?
Yeah, it is
Oh, but it ain't just what you thought it was
The single gal tryna catch a buzz
It's the only day of the week she gets alone
It's just what you think it is
Lonely mom of three great kids
She was left to raise 'em on her own
Is that an empty barstool sittin' there beside her?
Yeah, it is
Is that a Maker's Mark you're drankin'
To forget the things you're thinkin'?
She said, "Yeah, it is"
I said when a heart like yours is broken
Are you sure the whiskey's workin'?
She said, "Yeah, it is"
Is there a chance if I keep buyin'
I can stop them pretty eyes from cryin'?
She said, "Yeah, there is"
I said, "Well, honey, that's just what I'm gonna do"
As long as that's okay with you
She said, "Yeah, it is"
Oh, but it ain't just what you thought it was
The single gal tryna catch a buzz
It's the only day of the week she gets alone
It's just what you think it is
A lonely mom of three great kids
She was left to raise 'em on her own
And it's a good idea I stay right here beside her
Yeah, it is
