Reasons To Quit

Willie Nelson (with Merle Haggard)

Reasons to quit the smoke and booze don't do me like before

And I'm hardly ever sober and my old friends don't come around much anymore

Reasons to quit below it always lower than the high

And the reasons to quit don't out number all the reasons why

So we keep smokin' and we keep drinkin' havin' fun and never thinkin'

Laughin' at the price tags that we pay

And we keep rollin' down the fast lane like two young men feelin' no pain

And the reasons for quittin's gettin' bigger each day



Reasons to quit I can't afford the habit all the time

I need to be sober I need to write some new songs that will rhyme

Reasons to quit they have no rhyme or reason when you're high

And the reasons to quit don't out number all the reasons why
