One Bud Wiser
Gretchen Wilson


Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Grand ole Opry
Here in Nashville, Tennessee
All the way from Pocahontas, Illinois
It's Gretchen Wilson

Well I'm one bud wiser than I was a minute ago
I found an equalizer that makes his memory a no show
And I won't be jonesin' for his lovin' anymore
Cause I'm one bud wiser than I was a minute ago
I dropped a quarter, played Golden Rain on the jukebox. (Thank you!)
Placed my order with the guy behind the bar
And when he handed me a cold one, well I said, "Keep the change, Darlin'."
And as I drank it down, I felt the healing start

When he left me, he took my brand-new Silverado
I started thumbin' and I finally hitched a ride
I just came in here to drink a beer and watch the rednecks fight
Now I don't feel so bad goin' home alone tonight

And I won't be jonsein' for his lovin' any more
Cause I'm one bud wiser than I was a minute ago
Yes, I'm one bud wiser
