It's midnight in the big city

At the bar drinking all on my own

Just thinking about that girl and me

How something's going wrong Mister tell me, what's my saving grace?

The back room boys were all telling me

I'm a borderline case Back on the borderline one more time

Back on the borderline one more time Seven beers and still sober

It's time to change to something stronger

I cannot take this scene no longer

She could have told me it's all over Back in my home town

The old place, it's still the same

But time can cast a spell over something

And you can't go back again Back on the borderline one more time

Back on the borderline one more time Mister, fill me another

Till I go crazy and it turn my mind around

Just pass that bottle one more time

And slowly drink it down Jeanie can I tell you

The shame of my disgrace?

It's just love or rejection

For this borderline case Back on the borderline one more time

Back on the borderline one more time I'm on my bended knees crawling

I'm begging you darling

One more time

Back on the borderline one more time I know the risk you take

Baby, please don't leave me to say

One more time
