Lyrics
Reasons to quit, smoke and booze don't do me like before
And I'm hardly ever sober
And my old friends don't come around much anymore
Reasons to quit, the low is always lower than the high
And the reasons to quit don't outnumber all the reasons why
So we keep smoking and we keep drinking
Having fun and never thinkin'
Laughin' at the price tag that we paid
And we keep roaring down the fast lane
Like two young men feelin' no pain
And the reasons for quittin' is getting bigger each day
Reasons to quit, I can't afford the habit all the time
I need to be sober, I need to write some new songs that will rhyme
Reasons to quit, they have no rhyme or reason when you're high
And the reasons to quit don't outnumber all the reasons why
And we keep smoking and we keep drinking
Having fun and never thinkin'
And laughin' at the price tag that we paid
And we keep roarin' down the fast lane
Like two young men feeling no pain
And the reason for quittin' is getting bigger each day
And the reason for quittin' is getting bigger each day
