Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well, sometimes the best stories start with bad decisions
Well, sometimes the best stories start with bad decisions
Might be a little raw or be against the law
Might even be against your religion
Well, sometimes the best stories start with bad decisions
[Verse 2]
Well, who in the hell thought Tijuana was a good idea?
Left the club around 2, went to an all-night farmacia
Got as high as a kite, drunk as a sailor
Spent the rest of the night in a Mexican jail
Sometimes the best stories start with bad decisions
[Verse 3]
Landlord's a-knocking and ain't no one there to let him in
I'm in Vegas at the tables, about to go all in
I pushed two months' rent money into the pot
Turns out a poker player is something that I'm not
Sometimes the best stories start with bad decisions
[Instrumental]
You might lead a life without a little bit of strife
Protected like you're cooped up in a bubble
But in the end, now and then, what you'll remember, my friend
Is when you get into a little bit of trouble
Well, sometimes the best stories start with bad decisions
[Instrumental]
He was and big and mean, I swear that bouncer went about three hundred and ten
I guess I took offense when he wouldn't let my drunk ass in
Now, for five or six seconds, I was holding my own
Then I got knocked out on TikTok, someone filming with their phone
Sometimes the best stories start with bad decisions, woo
[Outro]
Well, sometimes the best stories start with bad decisions
Well, sometimes the best stories start with bad decisions
