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 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
