Drinkin' Song

Jesus has my heart, but whiskey's got my liver

Floatin' through life like a raft on a river

I know what's right and I know what's wrong

I know how to quit, but now it's been too long

Just the other day, I was thinkin' to myself

At least I still think to myself

Well, everything works, except me, of course

I still got some of my health

Well, I grit my teeth and I wish

I could stand up and ram my fist

Right through this wall that keeps on keepin' me in

I got sober, now it's over, and I'm back to drinkin' again

See, the time before I quit

I quit quittin' the very next day

So many times, hell, I lost count

I guess it just works that way

See, I forgot how it felt to feel good in the morning

Mornings were for goin' to bed

And I'd roll out the rack, a monkey on my back

Need a drink to ease my head

Well, I grit my teeth and I wish

I could stand up and ram my fist

Right through this wall that keeps on keepin' me in

I got sober, now it's over, and it's back to drinkin' again

See, I'm not sayin' that it's the right way

Hell, it's really no way at all

But you know, it seems like I'm never gonna get too tired

Of feelin' ten feet tall

So you may wanna watch what you're doin'

Or better yet you can just watch me

And it's not always entertaining

But you get what you pay for, and baby, it's free

Well, I grit my teeth and I wish

I could stand up and ram my fist

Right through this wall that keeps on keepin' me in, good Lord

I got sober, now it's over, and it's back to drinkin' again

Yeah, I grit my teeth and I wish

I could stand up and ram my fist

Right through this wall that keeps on keepin' me in

I got sober, now it's over, and it's back to drinkin' again

I got sober, now it's over, and it's back to drinkin' again
