Too Much Songtext
von Guy Clark

Too much working′ll make your back ache
Too much trouble'll bring you a heartbreak
Too much gravy′ll make you fat
Too much rain'll ruin your hat

Too much coffee'll race your heart tick
Too much road′ll make you homesick
Too much money′ll make you lazy
Too much whiskey'll drive you crazy

Too much just ain′t enough
Too much ain't near enough
Breathing′s 'bout the only thing
I do too much of ain′t enough

Now, too much limo'll stretch your budget
Too much diet'll make you fudge it
Too much bluff′ll make you show it
Too much pressure′ll make you blow it


Hey, too much onion'll make you weepy
Too much preaching′ll make you sleepy
Too much Mexican food'll fill you
Too much honky tonk′ll kill you

Too much just ain't enough
Too much ain′t near enough
Breathing's 'bout the only thing
I do too much of ain′t enough now

Too much hot rod′ll get you a ticket
Too much dog'll make you kick it
Too much hiding out′ll find you
Too much you-know-what'll blind you

Too much wrist watch′ll make you hurry
Too much waiting'll make you worry
Too much smoking′ll give you cancer
Too much cocaine ain't the answer

Too much just ain't enough
Too much ain′t near enough
Breathing′s 'bout the only thing
I do too much of ain′t enough now


Too much walking'll wear your shoes out
Too much juice′ll blow your fuse out
Too much time'll fill your hands up
Too much speed′ll wire the band up

Too much chip'll bruise your shoulder
Too much birthday'll make you older
Too much map has always lost me
Too much fun has always cost me

Too much just ain′t enough
Too much ain′t near enough
Breathing's ′bout the only thing
I do too much of ain't enough

Too much, too much
Breathing′s 'bout the only thing
I do too much of ain′t enough, alright
