all I had left to do was die
That my friends Jack and Jim
Every morning I was sorry,
every night I couldn't stand
Couldn't look myself in the mirror,
until the taunt drew near
Now I'll put down that drink,
for at least one more day
No more shame -filled mornings,
no more promises betrayed
Nights are a whole lot clearer now,
somehow I've learned to smile
now that just ain't my style
won't be an an chor against the fall
I can hold my head up high,
until the thunder drew near
Now I put down that drink
for at least one more day
No more shame -filled mornings,
no more promises betrayed
I used to pull the whiskey
and chase it with the beer
Now I've put down that drink
for at least one more day
No more shame -filled mornings,
no more promises betrayed
