I Can't Quit Drinking Songtext
von Johnny Paycheck

They could quit making whiskey
They could stop stompin′ grapes
If it wasn't for fools like me with hearts that break
They could close all the breweries
And they could lock up the bars
If it wasn′t for women like you who leaves lovin' scars

And I can't quit drinking
Lord knows I′ve tried
I′m gonna wear this whiskey glass there
'Til my memories go blind
No, I can′t quit drinking
And it'll kill me they say
And if Heaven′s sweet shores have swingin' doors
I′ll find them someday


You know I thought it all over
And I still don't understand
With millions of women
How can one mean so much to a man?
A women and whiskey
They're so much alike
′Cause just when you need them the most
You′re left high and dry

And I can't quit drinking
Lord knows I′ve tried
So I'm gonna wear this whisky glass there
′Til my memories go blind
'Cause I can′t quit drinking
And it'll kill me they say
And if Heaven's sweet shores have swingin′ doors
I′ll find them someday

Yes, if Heaven's sweet shores have swingin′ doors
I'll find them someday
