The Quitting Song
Copyright 2006 - Ray Parenteau
Been thinkin' 'bout quittin' drinkin'
I know there's something wrong
So I'm pickin' on my guitar, write myself a song
This craziness has gone on
Way too far too long
No more procrastinatin', here's my Quitting Song
My garage is full of empties, no room for my car
That's why I keep it parked out in front of Willie's Bar
With all the beer I've flushed away, maybe I've been wrong
So I'll be quittin drinkin - right after this song
The doctor says quit smokin', soon you're gonna croak
And every time I light up, I'm the butt of jokes
With all the cash I turn to ash, maybe I've been wrong
So I'll be quittin smokin - right after this song
Chorus
Every day I wake up and I have my fun
I guess it's time I make up for what I haven't done
These things that keep me going, they're slowly killing me
So I'll be quittin somethin' - just you wait and see
My girlfriend says she loves me, next day she don't care
My wife is lookin' at me like I'm having an affair
Soon they'll meet up on the street, and it won't be long
So I'll be quittin' women - right after this song
Repeat Chorus
Ending Verse
Thought about quittin' livin' - so many things so wrong
But then I see my guitar, waiting for a song
I guess that crazy thinking didn't last too long
Here's my quittin' drinkin' - smokin' and women
Guitar pickin' song
Yeah my quittin' drinkin' - smokin' and women
Guitar pickin' song
