Better I Don't

Lyrics

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 lot of 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 back slider
 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"
 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
 ♪
 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"
 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
 ♪
 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
 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
 Yeah, it's better I don't
 Yeah, it's better I don't
