Old Habits

Have you ever paid the price

Of losing the love of your life?

Lord, I sure hope you haven't

Ain't it hard to quit old habits?

She sure could put up a fight

But her luck ran out on her that night

I'm surprised how long she lasted

Ain't it hard to quit old habits?

That woman had the craziest dreams

She was destined to be something

Everybody knew it, it was bound to happen

But ain't it hard to quit old habits?

Had a good thing going for some time

We all thought she'd make it just fine

But those drugs were such a distraction

Lord, ain't it hard to quit old habits?

Addiction's like an evil spell

A cure only the devil sells

Coulda made something of herself

But I guess it still has done her well

'Cause there ain't no problem anymore

Now that she's six feet beneath the floor

She ain't gotta worry about the pain at once

Except the one she left to the rest of us

Except the one she left to the rest of us

'Cause addictions like an evil spell

A cure only the devil sells

A remedy that was made in hell

And I guess it still has done you well

'Cause there ain't no problem anymore

Now that you're six feet beneath the floor

You ain't gotta worry about the pain at once

Except the one you left to the rest of us

Except the one you left to the rest of us
