DRINK, SWEAR, STEAL & LIE

I was twelve 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 stealing is a lazy man's way
Something for nothing, leaves you hell to pay
So don't lie..then you can look the whole world in the eye
(Honey I try)
But sinceI met you girl, Im breaking every rule
I must confess Im just a backsliding tool

I want to drink from your loving cup
Swear I'll never you give you up
Steal all your kisses underneath the moon
I wanna lie here close to you, look what you make me do
Darlin' you're the reason why
I drink, swear, steal and lie

Last night I threw away my twelve-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 halo disappears without a trace (I swear)
Girl I admit I haven't got a prayer (but I don't care)
Well I know this ain't exactly how I was reaised
But heaven help me honey I ain't changin' my ways

I want to drink from your loving cup
Swear I'll never you give you up
Steal all your kisses underneath the moon
I wanna lie here close to you, look what you make me do
Darlin' you're the reason why
I drink, swear, steal and lie

I want to drink from your loving cup
Swear I'll never you give you up
Steal all your kisses underneath the moon
I wanna lie here close to you, look what you make me do
Darlin' you're the reason why
I drink, swear, steal and lie
