David Houston & Barbara Mandrell almost persuaded

Select language to translate this lyric

Last night all alone in a barroom
Met a girl with a drink in her hand
She had ruby red lips coal black hair
And eyes that would tempt any man
Then she came and sat down at my table
And as she placed his hand over mine
I found myself wanting to kiss her
For temptation was flowin' like wine
And I was almost persuaded to strip myself of my pride
And I was amost persuaded to push my conscience aside
Then we danced and she whispered I need you
Take me away from here and be my man
Then I looked into her eyes and I saw it
The reflection of my wedding band
And I was almost persuaded to let strange lips lead me on
And I was almost persuaded but your sweet love made me stop and go home
