This song was playing in the seventies or eighties. It is an old C%26amp;W song about drinking with these lyrics: "I thought I was walking fine until someone stepped on my hand." Cannot find it on any of the lyric search sites.
Does anyone know the title and artist of this old drinking C%26amp;W song lyrics: I thought I was walking fine till?
...this may not be it but it was the closest thing that I could find...

Lyrics
===============================
Last night I stumbled in to a barroom
I met a girl with a pint in her purse
She was cute as two speckled puppies
And I said Ben you could do worse
Then I walked across a room full of tables
Walked across her table too
And I flopped myself down in a chair
And said hi there
She whispered my name is Mabel
And all I could say was hi there
I said permit me to introduce myself Ben Colder here
She said it ain't been no colder here than anyplace else
I had her almost persuaded
What happened to the do del do del do... piano... thank you
To slip strip herself of her pride
Almost persuaded to slip me a drink on the side
Then we danced and we danced and we danced and we danced
That is I thought I was dancin' somebody stepped on my hand
Then I looked in her eyes and I saw it
The reflection of my wedding band
And I thought that sure is strange I ain't even married
What it was it was my wrist watch
I had her almost persuaded
Once more there Hargus
To come and be my own
Smart alec
(Almost persuaded)
Then her boyfriend came and made me go home
