作词 : George Strait/Bubba Strait/Dean Dillon 作曲 : George Strait/Bubba Strait/Dean Dillon I woke up this mornin' and I swore to God I'd never ever take another drink again I fought it like the devil but you know that you're in trouble When you're fourteen and drunk by ten AM Tried to hide it from my mom and dad all my friends said straighten up I just laughed said you don't understand That's a hell of a lot to ask of a drinkin' man At sixteen I was on my own and flyin' high And stayin' stoned I knew everything there was to know I did things that I can't talk about I wore my mom and daddy out Late nights they spent prayin' for my soul Stayed sober once for nine days in a row I quit cold turkey and damn near almost Made it to ten
But that's a hell of a lot to ask of a drinkin' man
I look into the mirror bottle in my hand
I'd like to pour it out I just don't think I can
'Cause that's a hell of a lot to ask of a drinkin' man
I don't know when or where it was or how we met And fell in love Or why she'd even fall for a guy like me
I tried to pull myself together hopin' we could last forever For awhile I started to believe
Her daddy said she's all I got Son don't ever break her heart Promise me before you take her hand
But that's just too much to ask of a drinkin' man
I look into the mirror bottle in my hand
I'd like to pour it out I just don't think I can
'Cause that's a hell of a lot to ask of a drinkin' man
I woke up this mornin' and I swore to God I'd never ever take another drink again
