My Soul and Me

It's been too long
I don't think I could ever shake it
I've been singing songs
Since I was 23
Now 20 years have gone
I don't care if I ever make it
All this writing songs
Is for my soul and me

Many years ago
I set out on this stringed adventure
And the booze came close
To almost killing me
I've learned more than most
The hard road is what I've taken
But now there's only ghosts
Of that man that used to be

Bars at night, neon lights
It's all that matters
Put a stand and mic
By my boots in front of me
By the chorus line, we'll be fine
Serving Prine on a platter
Just try to stay in time
While the boys in the band carry me

It's been too long
I don't think I could ever shake it
I'm still singing songs
Here at 43
After all the rhymes, forgotten lines
I'd have to say I made it
Cause all this writing songs
Is for my soul and me
