[Verse 1]
You rolled in with your collar up
Shoes in your hand, face full of dust
Motel mirror, cheap red trim
You said, “Baby, I got a fix on the rim”
I saw your hands start shake and sway
Heard your words go cheap and strange
You laughed too hard, then stared at the wall
Like you knew that night was about to fall
[Pre-Chorus]
I took your keys, said, “Sit right down”
You kept on reaching for the ground
I heard that door lock click too tight
And I knew I’d be up all night
[Chorus]
Don’t do cocaine in the bathroom
Don’t do cocaine in the bathroom
Leave that trouble at the back door
I can’t watch you chase the floor
Don’t do cocaine in the bathroom
Don’t do cocaine in the bathroom
If you love me, hear me now
Put that white stuff down
[Verse 2]
Mama’s Bible on the dresser top
Daddy’s truck in the gravel lot
You got a job and a little girl
You got a whole good life in this little world
But that tile turned mean real fast
And every lie don’t ever last
You can blame the town, blame the blues
But you’re the one that’s got to choose
[Pre-Chorus]
I took your keys, said, “Sit right down”
You kept on reaching for the ground
I heard that door lock click too tight
And I knew I’d be up all night
[Chorus]
Don’t do cocaine in the bathroom
Don’t do cocaine in the bathroom
Leave that trouble at the back door
I can’t watch you chase the floor
Don’t do cocaine in the bathroom
Don’t do cocaine in the bathroom
If you love me, hear me now
Put that white stuff down
[Bridge]
I’ve seen good men turn to ghosts
Lose their name for one more dose
A little powder, a broken vow
Can take your whole damn house down now
So come on out with your face so pale
Let me help you back from hell
We can drive till the hurt runs thin
But you can’t start over if you won’t come in
[Chorus]
Don’t do cocaine in the bathroom
Don’t do cocaine in the bathroom
Leave that trouble at the back door
I can’t watch you chase the floor
Don’t do cocaine in the bathroom
Don’t do cocaine in the bathroom
If you love me, hear me now
Put that white stuff down
