Mystic
Cowboys
Laying
around here letting my body mend
I
felt the rage of another good friend
He
took a life before he finally struck
Didn’t
take long to sober me up
No
it didn’t take long to sober me up
I
wondered if I’d get fired or not
Wasn’t
the first time that we fought
He
gave me a sad song a smile and a wink
He
said I wouldn’t mind if you didn’t drink
I
wouldn’t mind if you didn’t drink
Nobody
minds when I don’t drink
That’s
not the way this old body thinks
When
I get good and drunk my attitude stinks
Nobody
minds when I don’t drink
Nobody
minds when I don’t drink
So
now my reputation’s not good
So
many reasons to quit and I know I should
This
situation’s not easy at all
Wherever
I run there’s always a wall
Wherever
I run there’s always a wall
Nobody
minds when I don’t drink
That’s
not the way this old body thinks
When
I get good and drunk my attitude stinks
Nobody
minds when I don’t drink
Nobody
minds when I don’t drink
I
lost my job my friends and my wife
Thought
long and hard about taking my life
There’s
always been someone to keep me on track
Now
I’m alone, they all turned their backs
Now
I’m alone, they all turned their backs
Nobody
minds when I don’t drink
That’s
not the way this old body thinks
When
I get good and drunk my attitude stinks
Nobody
minds when I don’t drink
Nobody
minds when I don’t drink
Nobody
minds when I don’t drink
That’s
not the way this old body thinks
When
I get good and drunk my attitude stinks
Nobody
minds when I don’t drink
Nobody
minds when I don’t drink
Now
this song’s almost over and I’m starting to think
Maybe
I wouldn’t mind if I didn’t drink
