Lidocaine

I'm a big fan of the weather

She ain't bothered by a change

Me, I need mental shots of lidocaine

Just to get me through the day

I count my time in weeks and leap years

'Cause it feels like slowing down

But the trouble I've been finding out

Is you can't turn no time around

Ain't no tellin' where I'll be

When the sun come up tomorrow

So, make me laugh and make me cry

Read me something happy from the Bible

Lord, I know, I'm not insane

Just I took a turn off memory lane

Did I pray, mmm-mmm

Or didn't I pray?

Not to forget you before I'm gone

If I'm a different man tomorrow

You be good to that unlucky fool for me

He don't know where he is

Or through what color eyes he's seeing

But he wouldn't hurt a thing

Tell Mama, I'm out touring

That any day now, I'll be coming off the road

Tell my brother that I'm sorry

And don't try to fix me when I'm broke

Ain't no tellin' where I'll be

When the sun come up tomorrow

So, make me laugh and make me cry

Read me something happy from the Bible

Lord, I know, I'm not insane

Just I took a turn off memory lane

Did I pray, mmm-mmm

Or didn't I pray?

Not to forget you before I'm gone

Before I'm gone

Before I'm gone

Before I'm gone
