I woke up cussing Jack Daniels today, yeah
Could almost hear him laughing in my head
He ain't the kinda guy to hang out with, man
Someday I gotta quit

I killed that guilt with some getting to church on time
But I, couldn't make it through the sermon again
Without packing a little calm-down in my lip
Man someday I gotta quit

Between the whiskey and the nicotine
The wrong girls in the right jeans
All the other fires that keep burning, me I keep lit
It ain't never gonna happen, some say
Oh but somehow, someway, someday I gotta quit

Old man was waiting around like he always does
Hoping this might be the day I drop that grudge
And holding it is heavy, I admit
Man, some day I gotta quit

Between the whiskey and the nicotine
The wrong girls in the right jeans
All the other fires that keep burning, me I keep lit
It ain't never gonna happen, some say
Oh but somehow, someway, someday I gotta quit

I got a long drag from a Marlboro in my lungs
Another long neck in my hands getting low
And I'm missing the girl that started all of this, damn
Some day I gotta quit
