Reasons to Quit Songtext
von Merle Haggard and Willie Nelson

Reasons to quit
The smoke and booze don′t do me like before
And I'm hardly ever sober
And my old friends don′t come 'round much anymore

Reasons to quit
Below is always lower than the high
And the reasons to quit
Don't outnumber all the reasons why

So, we keep smoking, and we keep drinking
Having fun, and never thinking
Laughin′ at the price tag that we pay

And we keep rolling down the fast lane
Like two young men feeling no pain
And the reason for quittin′ is gettin' bigger each day


Reasons to quit
I can′t afford the habit all the time
I need to be sober
I need to write some new songs that will rhyme

Reasons to quit
They have no rhyme or reason when you're high
And the reasons to quit
Don′t outnumber all the reasons why

And we keep smoking, and we keep drinking
Having fun, never thinking
And laughing at the price tag that we pay
And we keep rolling down the fast lane
Like two young men feeling no pain
And the reason for quittin' is gettin′ bigger each day

And the reason for quittin' is gettin' bigger each day
