Ten hours down at the factory line Clocked out late, just killing time Work boots heavy, jacket in my hand Same old road, I'm a working man Streetlights buzzing over my head All I want is a drink and bed Then some slick stranger blocks my way Says, "Hey man, got something that'll make your day" I said, "No thanks, that ain't my speed" He smiled and said, "Everybody's got a need" WRONG MAN TONIGHT! Better step aside WRONG MAN TONIGHT! I ain't buying what you hide WRONG MAN TONIGHT! Take your poison down the line You picked the wrong man WRONG MAN TONIGHT! He walked beside me half a block Little white bag pulled from his sock Said, "This'll keep you going all night long" I said, "Brother, I've been going since dawn" He laughed and tried to name his price Said everybody needs a little paradise I shook my head and walked on through Man, I got nothing left to prove to you He said, "Come on, you only live once" I said, "That's exactly why I don't want none" WRONG MAN TONIGHT! Better step aside WRONG MAN TONIGHT! I ain't buying what you hide WRONG MAN TONIGHT! Take your poison down the line You picked the wrong man WRONG MAN TONIGHT! He stood there cursing under that light Selling the same old lie every night I kept walking, never looked back Left him fading down the railroad track Front door open, kitchen light Cold beer waiting, everything's alright Tomorrow morning, same old time Back to work on that factory line WRONG MAN TONIGHT! Better step aside WRONG MAN TONIGHT! I ain't buying what you hide WRONG MAN TONIGHT! Take your poison down the line You picked the wrong man WRONG MAN TONIGHT! WRONG MAN TONIGHT! I'm just heading home WRONG MAN TONIGHT! Leave this working man alone WRONG MAN TONIGHT! You wasted all your time You picked the wrong man WRONG MAN TONIGHT!
