Can't Quit Enough

(album: Lifers - 2018)

I've played every honky tonk and roadside bar and juke joint
Between here and Minneapolis
You know I've lived these miles
There's a haggard man behind these eyes and smile

I picked up the guitar 'round the time I turned fourteen
Lit that fire, been burning tires, hard booze, both hands in gasoline
Staying wired, come back down the best that we know how
We know now

We're all trying to quit smoking
Tired of laughing, tired of joking
'Bout the habits we all have slowly creeping up
We all gotta die from something
Living kills you, life is tough
But I can't quit 'cause I can't quit enough

I've felt all the pressures playing to an empty room
And the pleasures of a crowd that's singing loud to every word to all my songs
But the band and me, Lord, keep rolling on
We roll on

We're still trying to quit smoking
Tired of laughing, tired of joking
'Bout the habits we all have slowly creeping up
We all gotta die from something
Living kills you, life is tough
I can't quit 'cause I can't quit enough

We're all trying to quit smoking
Tired of laughing, tired of joking
'Bout the habits we all have slowly creeping up
We all gotta die from something
Living kills you, life is tough
I can't quit 'cause I can't quit enough
I'll never quit 'cause I can't quit enough
