Keith Whitley Hard Livin` Lyrics

Hard Livin` Lyrics

Well, you can call out the sheriff and the highway patrol

'Cause there's a fool on the road careenin' out of control

Hard liquor, fast women, I just can't let him be

Lord, I wish hard livin' didn't come so easy for me



Well, I keep my motor runnin', got my beer on ice

And my idea of heaven is a pair of dice

Seven come on eleven, set this poor boy free

Lord, I wish hard livin' didn't come so easy for me



Bright lights, Saturday night

Well, I musta had a couple, I'm a-feelin' alright

My cupcake can shimmy and shake

Spend more money than anybody makes



Well, gimme some more high octane juice

You know there ain't no cure, forget your honky tonk blues

And if they come up with somethin' I'll develop an immunity

Lord, I wish hard livin' didn't come easy for me



Out on the town just a-foolin' around

And I got my mind on the lost and found

Step up, no need to be shy

You know that every pretty woman's got a ticket to ride



Well, my tires are flat and now I'm out of gas

I always promised myself I'd let the next one pass

Lord, I wish that that a promise didn't break so easily

And I wish hard livin' didn't come so easy for me

Hey, I wish hard livin' didn't come so easy for me
