Verse 1 Lights are low and the jukebox hums, Everybody’s got a story and a habit that comes. I’m pourin’ drinks like warnings dressed in shine— Sip slow, sugar, mind that line. I see trouble walk before it speaks, Those eyes come in lookin’ for a little release. But I ain’t your fix, I ain’t your fight— Darlin’, don’t test me tonight. ⸻ Pre-Chorus I’ve learned how to read a man in a glance— Who wants a drink, who wants a chance. And who should turn around before they make this bar a battleground. ⸻ Chorus Darlin’, don’t test me tonight— I’m feelin’ sharp, I’m feelin’ right. Pourin’ fire with a little delight, but I don’t play games past closing time. If you think you’re the storm, think twice— I’ve weathered better with half the bite. Keep it easy, keep it light— Yeah, darlin’, don’t test me tonight. ⸻ Verse 2 Shadows move where the neon bleeds, Folks come in with their wants and needs. I serve the truth in measured shots— You want mercy, babe? I ain’t got lots. I’ve danced with danger just for fun, But I pick my risks—one by one. So don’t go sparkin’ what you can’t ignite— Darlin’, don’t test me tonight. ⸻ Pre-Chorus (variation) One wrong word, one look too long— and I’ll remind you whose bar you’re standin’ on. I’m sweet enough, til sweet’s a threat— Trust me, sugar, you ain’t seen me yet. ⸻ Chorus Darlin’, don’t test me tonight— I’m feelin’ sharp, I’m feelin’ right. Pourin’ fire with a little delight, but I don’t play games past closing time. If you think you’re the storm, think twice— I’ve weathered better with half the bite. Keep it easy, keep it light— Yeah, darlin’, don’t test me tonight. ⸻ Bridge I’m the warning in the whiskey, the velvet in the sting. If you push your luck, don’t miss me— I don’t bend for anything. ⸻ Final Chorus Darlin’, don’t test me tonight— not your muse, not your invite. Pour your heart or pour your flight, but choose it clean and choose it right. ’Cause if you come in hot, hold tight— I burn colder than a barroom light. Keep it steady, keep polite— Darlin’, don’t test me tonight.
