Not Gonna Be Tonight

I could put up a fight
I sincerely believe someday I might
But it's not gonna be tonight

It's a cold and simple fact
I need to get this monkey off my back
And make things right
But it's not gonna be tonight

[Chorus]
I'm too weak to take a stand
Staring at my tremblin' hand
I guess I'll never be the man my dear old daddy was

Someday I'll change my ways
Walk out of this haze into the light
And live my life
But it's not gonna be tonight

[Chorus]
I'm too weak to take a stand
Staring at my tremblin' hand
I guess I'll never be the man my dear old daddy was

To those that I've let down
Who pray that I'll turn this ship around
Wouldn't that be nice
But it's not gonna be tonight
No it's not gonna be tonight
