Better I Don’t

Lyrics

[Verse 1] My good buddy asked me, "Buddy, why don't you drink?" And I said, "It's probably better I don't" He said, "There's a lotta girls in this here bar that we could chase" I said, "Trust me, it's probably better I don't" 'Cause I used to be an all-nighter I'm a hell of a backslider I've been around the block more than a time or two And I can promise you I've drank my weight in booze And I've been known to get on stage in nothing but my boots [Chorus] So it's better I don't, cause believe me, I will I get looser than a line on a fishing reel Dare me don't do, don't think I won't Take it all off, turn it all on Get buck wild, hell bent, and stoned It's better I don't [Verse 2] Well, I was wearing the cuffs when the warden said "Just tell me the truth" And I said, "Sir, it's probably better I don't" And I was up on the stand, and the judge said "Just tell me what happened man" And I said, "Buddy, it's probably better I don't, but since you asked" I was mindin' my own business at a hundred and five I was a county road cruisin' Out running the blue lights I was on the home stretch I was roundin' that last curve Well, I ran out of gas and that's when I learn [Chorus] It's better I don't, cause believe me, I will I get looser than a line on a fishing reel Dare me don't do, don't think I won't Take it all off, turn it all on Get buck wild, hell bent, and stoned It's better I don't [Bridge] Now there's things I don't remember There's things that I do But I don't know the half of what I got into [Chorus] And it's better I don't, cause believe me, I will Yeah, I get looser than a line on your fishing reel Dare me don't do, don't think I won't Take it all off, turn it all on Get buck wild, hell bent, and stoned Drunk dial somebody on the phone Drink too many beers and drive a Harley home It's better I don't [Outro] Yeah, it's better I don't Yeah, it's better I don't
