I don't know why I drink so much can't even stand the test
|
But liquid courage helps me through my day
|
If I take time to stop and think the booze just goes to waste
|
I'm still the same cause I was born that way
|
My love walked out and mama cried I've heard she even cursed
|
And said I'm turning off my family grey
|
Of all the kids she raised no doubt Stonewall turned out the worse
|
Guess I must have just been born that way
|
I guess there's a streak of sorry burried in each man
|
And it always shows up now and then
|
Mine wasn't burried deep enough it's got the upper hand
|
Cause that line between the good and bad's so thin
|
The preacher said my only chance was to be born again
|
So I got bowties and tried so hard to break
|
But the devil in me laughed and danced when I went back to sin
|
Guess I must have just been born that way
|
I'm just no good cause I was born that way what can I do when I was born that way
|
