Drink Swear Steal Lie lyrics

I was twelve when daddy said to me

Don`t take to drinkin 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`ve tried



But since I`ve met you girl I`m breakin every rule

I must confess I`m just a backsliding fool



CHORUS:

I want to drink from your loving cup

Swear I`ll never give you up

Steal all your kisses underneath the moon

I want to 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 your 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 anger disappears without a trace

I swear, girl I admit I haven`t got a chance

But I don`t care



Well I know this ain`t exactly how I was raised

But heaven help me honey, I ain`t changing my ways



REPEAT CHORUS (2 x`s)



Drink, swear, steal, lie
