Doing Wrong

from Scavenger's Joy by Driftwood Soldier

lyrics

I’m in my right mind, but I can’t keep doin’ wrong
I’m in my right mind, but I can’t keep doin’ wrong
And the days pass so quickly, and the nights last so long

My woman left me, oooh child ain’t that sad
My woman left me, oooh child ain’t that sad
I know I didn’t treat her right, but I swear I didn’t treat her bad

She said, “You and your drinking boy, you’re giving me the blues”
She said, “You and your drinking boy, you’re giving me the blues
I swear you love it more than me, and that ain’t a fight I aim to lose.”

I’ma put that bottle down, and bring that woman back home
I’ma put that bottle down, and bring that woman back home
I had some good times with that whiskey, Lord, but I hate to drink alone.

I’m in my right mind, but I can’t keep doin’ wrong
I’m in my right mind, but I can’t keep doin’ wrong
And the days pass so quickly, and the nights last so long
And the days pass so quickly, and the nights last so long
And the days pass so quickly, and the nights last so long
And the days pass so quickly, and the nights last so long
