lyrics

Now listen up baby let's get something straight
Things were getting old
Things weren't that great
We had some times
Really ripped it up
Know what you want to say
So let me interrupt

When I drink
I drink
And when I quit
I quit
And it's not my problem if you can't handle it

Now listen up daddy I don't need that drink
Don't care what you say
Don't care what you think
Talk around that the old me is dead
You got that right
Remember what I said

When I drink
I drink
And when I quit
I quit
And it's not my problem if you can't handle it

It's just something I had to do
I ain't saying it's right for you
Don't act like I made a mistake
There's just so much preaching that I could take
So much I could take

Here's a not to myself
For when I'm feeling blue
Just hang in there son
Don't let it get to you
You don't want to be loved for all the wrong things
What good are the friends
That kind of love brings

When I drink
I drink
And when I quit
I quit
And it's not my problem if you can't handle it
