Oliver Anthony - I've Got to Get Sober

  • 8 months ago
Well the life we've been given and the way we've been livin'
That's the song that we write 'til we die
Now some people write songs on livin' just right
But I write mine on just getting by

I'll go on a whim, start writing the hymn
That sounds so sweet
But the troubles and the sin of the world that we're in
Knock me back off my feet

I gotta get sober
I gotta start livin' right
I don't know how it's gonna go
But it ain't gonna happen tonight
So pour 'em down strong
'Til I drown
And if I wake up tomorrow
When that sun comes back around
I'll be wishing I was sober

Well the liquor and the bowl, they'vе been saving my soul
From the pain that the world's put on me
Lord, I know that upstairs thеre's an old man who cares
And one day he'll set me free

I'll go on a whim, start writing the hymn
The sound so sweet
But the troubles and the sin of the world that we're in
Knock me back off my feet

I gotta get sober
I gotta start livin' right
I don't know how it's gonna go
But it ain't gonna happen tonight
So pour 'em down strong
'Til I drown
And if I wake up tomorrow
When that sun comes back around
I'll be wishing I was sober

Well the life we've been given and the way we've been livin'
That's the song that we write 'til we die
