I've played every honky tonk and roadside bar and juke joint
Between here and Minneapolis
You know I've lived these miles
There's a haggard man behind these eyes and smile
I picked up the guitar 'round the time I turned fourteen
Played that fire and burnin' tires
Hard booze both hands in gasoline
Stayin' wired
We'd come back down the best that we know how
We know now
We're all tryin' to quit smoking
Tired of laughin', tired of joking
'Bout the habits we all have
Slowly creepin' up
We all gotta die for something
Livin' kills you, life is tough
I can't quit 'cause I can't quit enough
I felt all the pressures playing to an empty room
And the pleasures of the crowd
That's singin' loud to every word to all my songs
But the band and me, Lord, keep rollin' on
We roll on
We're all tryin' to quit smoking
Tired of laughin', tired of joking
'Bout the habits we all have
Slowly creepin' up
We all gotta die for something
Livin' kills you, life is tough
I can't quit 'cause I can't quit enough
We're all tryin' to quit smoking
Tired of laughin', tired of joking
'Bout the habits we all have
Slowly creepin' up
We all gotta die for something
Livin' kills you, life is tough
I can't quit 'cause I can't quit enough
No I'll never quit 'cause I can't quit enough
