Lyrics

Well, I'll spend my last dollar on some courage I could buy Forty ounces of it at some truck stop in Ohio Spend forty days walking and another forty high Just for you to give me forty reasons for goodbye [Chorus] Say why, say why Say why [Verse 2] Spend forty days drying out and forty days sober Smokin' cigarettes and quotin' Bible verses on the sofa You said, "All's not lost, just an eye for an eye" So I carried my cross to the bar last night [Chorus] Say why, say why Say why [Verse 3] Well, I'll spend my last dollar on some courage I could buy Forty ounces of it before you told me to die Still drove forty hours and I'd drive forty more Forty days in the desert just to wind up at your door Forty ounces, forty minutes, forty days and forty ways Forty reasons that you're leaving and forty more to stay [Chorus] Say why, say why Say why, say why Say why [Outro] I'll spend my last dollar on some courage I could buy Forty ounces of it at some truck stop in Ohio Spend forty days walking and another forty high Just for you to give me forty reasons for goodbye
