The Riverboat Gamblers - Keep Me From Drinking lyrics

Them's the breaks, flubbed some takes, made some mistakes Call it an evening, just not well spent The Vicodin is kicking in Serotonin may be lacking tomorrow I'll deal with it then Did you see me try? Like a little kid with a sheet on trying to fly Black clouds in the sky always come when I'm the lowest Please tell me why...my oh why Sang some tunes, I got a bruise So I lick my wounds Does that sound familiar? I did it last night I know I'll probably never sleep inside this van which has no heat Nobody had any pills for me or they're holding out Did you see me try? Like a little kid with a sheet on trying to fly Black clouds in the sky always come when I'm the lowest Please tell me why...my oh why Please believe that these broken knees will still carry me they won't keep me from drinking tonight No laceration on this occasion is deep enough not to keep me from drinking tonight The slim hope of chance gives us reason to dance and tomorrow's no reason to keep me from drinking tonight The beautiful lie, I'm not wasting my life keeps me standing Did you see me try? Like a little kid with a sheet on trying to fly Black clouds in the sky always come when I'm the lowest Please tell me why...my oh why Please believe that these broken knees will still carry me they won't keep me from drinking tonight No laceration on this occasion is deep enough not to keep me from drinking tonight The slim hope of chance gives us reason to dance and tomorrow's no reason to keep me from drinking tonight The beautiful lie, I'm not wasting my life keeps me standing
