Still Doin' Time
Has it been a year since the last time I've seen her
My God, I could swear it was ten
And the ocean of liquor I've drank to forget her
Is gonna kill me, but I'll drink 'til then
I've been living in hell with a bar for a cell
Still paying for my cheating crimes
Oh, and I've got a long way to go still doin' time
Still doin' time in a honky-tonk prison
Still doin' time, where a man ain't forgiven
My poor heart is breaking, but there's no escaping
Each morning I wake up and I find
Still doin' time
Oh, when you're caught cheating twice
It's 20 to life, in a place where the sun never shines
And tomorrow you're gonna find me right here
Still doin' time
Still doin' time in a honky-tonk prison
Still doin' time, where a man ain't forgiven
My poor heart is breaking, but there's no escaping
Each morning I wake up and I find
Still doin' time
Still doin' time
My God, I could swear it was ten
And the ocean of liquor I've drank to forget her
Is gonna kill me, but I'll drink 'til then
I've been living in hell with a bar for a cell
Still paying for my cheating crimes
Oh, and I've got a long way to go still doin' time
Still doin' time in a honky-tonk prison
Still doin' time, where a man ain't forgiven
My poor heart is breaking, but there's no escaping
Each morning I wake up and I find
Still doin' time
Oh, when you're caught cheating twice
It's 20 to life, in a place where the sun never shines
And tomorrow you're gonna find me right here
Still doin' time
Still doin' time in a honky-tonk prison
Still doin' time, where a man ain't forgiven
My poor heart is breaking, but there's no escaping
Each morning I wake up and I find
Still doin' time
Still doin' time
