Keeping Up With The Jonesin Lyrics by Dean Brody
Might be the smoke than I’m smokin’
Might be that bottle I’m holdin’
Could be the hole in the wall I’m tryin’ to climb
Might be a woman I’m lovin’
A little bit’s a lot more than nothin’
Too much ain’t ever enough for me to suffice
And that’s why
Keepin’ up with the jonesin’ is takin’ its toll
And I’m out of my skull, damn near out of my mind
I drive like I stole it, no sign of slowin’
At this rate, I’m goin’ before it’s my time
And I ain’t done it yet, but I gotta quit
Keepin’ up with the jonesin’
Barely half gettin’ by
Any day that ends in Y
If you need to find me, just follow that Black Label trail
Ah hell, it’s always double I’m seein’
And Beam’s and codeine got me dreamin’
‘Bout a day I could say that I ain’t goin’ off of the rails
Ah hell
Keepin’ up with the jonesin’ is takin’ its toll
And I’m out of my skull, damn near out of my mind
I drive like I stole it, no sign of slowin’
At this rate, I’m goin’ before it’s my time
And I ain’t done it yet, but I gotta quit
Keepin’ up with the jonesin’, yeah
Jail went E-S-I-N
It’s a fight that I can’t seem to win
Well, I’ll end up like George if I keep on livin’ like him
Here I go again
Keepin’ up with the jonesin’ is takin’ its toll
And I’m out of my skull, damn near out of my mind
I drive like I stole it, no sign of slowin’
At this rate, I’m goin’ before it’s my time
And I ain’t done it yet, but I gotta quit
Keepin’ up with the jonesin’, yeah
It’s gonna kill me
