Drink, Swear, Steal & Lie

Lyrics

I was 12 when daddy said to me
 "Don't take to drinking, boy
 That road don't lead nowhere
 And don't you ever let me hear you swear
 Don't you dare"
 He told me, "Stealing's a lazy man's way
 Something for nothing leaves you hell to pay
 So, don't buy into it
 And then you can look the whole world in the eye"
 Honey, I've tried
 But since I met you, girl
 I've been breaking every rule
 I must confess, I'm just a backsliding fool
 I want to drink from your loving cup
 Swear I'll never give you up
 Steal all your kisses underneath the moon
 I wanna lie here close to you
 Look at what you made me do
 Darling, you're the reason why I drink, swear, steal and lie
 Last night I threw away the 12-step book
 I finally faced the fact that I am hooked on you
 There's nothing more that I can do
 Ain't no use
 'Cause every time I see your angel face
 My halo disappears without a trace, I swear
 Girl, I'd admit I haven't got a prayer
 But I don't care
 I know this ain't exactly how I was raised
 But heaven help me, honey
 I ain't changing my ways
 I want to drink from your loving cup
 Swear I'll never give you up
 Steal all your kisses underneath the moon
 I wanna lie here close to you
 Look at what you made me do
 Darling, you're the reason why I drink, swear, steal and lie
 I want to drink from your loving cup
 Swear I'll never give you up
 Steal all your kisses underneath the moon
 I wanna lie here close to you
 Look at what you made me do
 Darling, you're the reason why I drink, swear, steal and lie
 Drink, swear, steal and lie
