I’ve had fame and fortune, women come knock on my door | |
I’ve live to the limit and maybe a little bit more | |
There are so many stories of how | |
I got out of control | |
Some say it’s a woman, some say it’s my trouble soul | |
I’m like a crazy old solider fightin’ a war on my own | |
Just me and the whiskey and the bottles are ten thousand strong | |
You’d think | |
I’d give up as many times as | |
I’ve been hit | |
But like a crazy old soldier, | |
I just don’t know when to quit | |
Barrooms and bedrooms are just faces and places and names | |
Once for the pleasure and | |
Lord knows once for the pain | |
I’ve tried to forget her and all of the things that we’ve done | |
But as long as there are memories, | |
I’ll never hang up my gun | |
I’m like a crazy old solider fightin’ a war on my own | |
Just me and the whiskey and the bottles are ten thousand strong | |
You’d think | |
I’d give up as many times as | |
I’ve been hit | |
But like a crazy old soldier, | |
I just don’t know when to quit | |
Like a crazy old solider, | |
I just don’t know when to quit |
I' ve had fame and fortune, women come knock on my door | |
I' ve live to the limit and maybe a little bit more | |
There are so many stories of how | |
I got out of control | |
Some say it' s a woman, some say it' s my trouble soul | |
I' m like a crazy old solider fightin' a war on my own | |
Just me and the whiskey and the bottles are ten thousand strong | |
You' d think | |
I' d give up as many times as | |
I' ve been hit | |
But like a crazy old soldier, | |
I just don' t know when to quit | |
Barrooms and bedrooms are just faces and places and names | |
Once for the pleasure and | |
Lord knows once for the pain | |
I' ve tried to forget her and all of the things that we' ve done | |
But as long as there are memories, | |
I' ll never hang up my gun | |
I' m like a crazy old solider fightin' a war on my own | |
Just me and the whiskey and the bottles are ten thousand strong | |
You' d think | |
I' d give up as many times as | |
I' ve been hit | |
But like a crazy old soldier, | |
I just don' t know when to quit | |
Like a crazy old solider, | |
I just don' t know when to quit |
I' ve had fame and fortune, women come knock on my door | |
