I've Got to Get Sober Songtext
von Oliver Anthony

Well, the life we′ve been given and the way we been livin's
Just a song that we write ′til we die
Some people write songs on livin' just right
But I write mine on just gettin' by

And I′ll go on a whim
Start to writin′ a hymn that sounds so sweet
But the troubles and the sin of the world that we're in
Knock me back off my feet


I gotta get sober, I gotta start livin′ right
Oh, I don't know how it′s gonna go
But it ain't gonna happen tonight
So pour ′em down strong until I drown
And if I wake up tomorrow when that sun comes back around
I'll be wishin' I was sober
Well, the liquor and the bowl, they been numbin′ my soul
From the pain that the world′s put on me
But I know that, upstairs, there's an old man who cares
And one day, well, He′ll set me free

And I'll go on a whim
Start to writin′ a hymn that sounds so sweet
But the troubles and the sin of the world that we're in
Knock me back off my feet

I gotta get sober, I gotta start livin′ right
Oh, I don't know how it's gonna go
But it ain′t gonna happen tonight
So pour ′em down strong until I drown
And if I wake up tomorrow when that sun comes back around
I'll be wishin′ I was sober
Well, the life we've been given and the way we been livin′s
Just a song that we write 'til we die
