"Drink, Swear, Steal, Lie" lyrics - KENNY CHESNEY

I was 12 when Daddy said to me
"Don't take to drinking boy that road don't lead nowhere"
And don't you ever let me hear you swear
(Don't you dare)

He told me stealin' is a lazy man's way
Something for nothin' leaves you held in place
So don't lie, then you can look the whole world in the eye
But since I met you girl, I'm breakin' every rule
I must confess I'm just a backstabbin' fool

I wanna drink from your loving cup
Swear I'll never give you up
Steal all your kisses underneath the moon

I wanna lie here close to you
Look at what you make me do
Darling you're the reason why
I drink swear steal and lie

Last night I threw away my 12-step book
I finally faced the fact that I am hooked on you
There's nothing more that I can do
(Ain't no use)

'Cause every time I see your angel face
My anger disappears without a trace, I swear
Girl I admit I haven't got a prayer
(I don't care)
I know you've seen exactly how I was raised
But heaven help me honey, I ain't changing my ways

I wanna drink from your loving cup
Swear I'll never give you up
Steal all your kisses underneath the moon

I wanna lie here close to you
Look at what you make me do
Darling you're the reason why
I drink swear steal and lie

I wanna drink from your loving cup
Swear I'll never give you up
Steal all your kisses underneath the moon

I wanna lie here close to you
Look at what you make me do
Darling you're the reason why
I drink swear steal and lie
