I Like Drinking

I Like Drinking to forget your name
And I smoke reefer a'do much the same
Between me and you - there's ain't nothing I wouldn't do
to untangle these ties with you
How much sweet life source have you took
I keep thinking I'd rather not look
Our love's like a fern thats been dried up and burned
It's absurd - but I keep coming back.
Oh believe me bruther
I bleeve I'd ruther
dig a hole and crawl in the ground
Between you and I I think I'd ruther die
So I'll just stay drunk all the time
I've been over and over this girl
But you like the rattle snakes curl
You coil to strike me again
In my wide world of sin
lights out I think its the end
have mercy on me Jesus Christ
