Well, the doc said, "Son, you've got to quit this life ya lead before
E B A B
ya die." I said, "I can't quit. It's all I know and I can't afford
E B A
to die. And how'm I supposed to pay your bills when I'm six feet in
E B A
the ground? And who in the hell's gonna feed my dog when I'm no
B E
longer 'round?"
E B
I said, "Ain't there something you can do, doc?
A E B
Some kind of pill or remedy?" He said, "I ain't never heard of no
A B E
drug that works to keep a man from being lazy."
E B A
Huh, I said "Lazy? Now you just watch it, doc, cause I work really
E B A B E
hard. You see, from 10p.m. to 2a.m., everynight, I play my guitar.
E B A
Yeah, and I drink real hard and I smoke real hard, and I hardly
E B
have time to sleep. And lately I've been eatin' so hard, I can
A B E
hardly see my feet."
E B A E
Well, I sat down and pondered awhile 'bout what the good doc had said
B A B
And I thought real quitely to myself, "Ya know, maybe I'd be better
E B
off dead." Now you see, a dead man don't hafta worry about the police
A E B
for any warrants he might have out. And I'd no longer hafta hide
A B E
from the credit card collecters tryin' to flush me out.
E B A E
Yeah, bein' dead would be great. No more smoke-filled lungs or bars.
B A B
No more worryin' bout that liver disease you get from drinkin' too
E B A E
hard. No more playin' all night, no more hangovers that last all day.
B A B E
No more meetin' beautiful women, no more rollin' around in the hay.
(or rollin' around...who wrote that?)
B A E
Who'm I kiddin'?? I don't wanna die. I got alot of things left to do.
B A
I got alot of drinkin' and smokin' and pickin' and grinnin' and
B E
writin' songs for you.
A
Well, I wanna live forever or atleast as long as I can.
E
I wanna smoke them cigarettes, feel the burnin' in my lungs man.
A
I wanna drink lots of whiskey and get drunk and stupid and stoned.
E
And I wanna make love to my woman, feel the passion burn all night
long.
B
Lord, don't take me now. You've gotta give me a little more time.
A B A
I've got a few loose ends down here to tie up, alotta worries on my
E
mind.
A
Well, I wanna live forever or atleast as long as I can.
E
I wanna smoke them Marlboro lights, feel the burnin' in my lungs man.
A
I wanna drink Wild Turkey and get drunk and stupid and stoned.
E
And I wanna make love to my woman, feel the passion burn all night
long.
B
Lord, don't take me now. You've gotta give me a little more time.
A B A
I've got a few loose ends down here to tie up, alotta worries on my
E
mind.
A B
I've got a few loose ends down here to tie up, and Lord, you know
A E
I can't afford to die.
