Текст Jamey Johnson — Sober

I’ve been mad

I’ve been drunk
I’ve been so high I can’t tell up from down

But lately I’ve been working
On trying to get my feet back on the ground

It ain’t easy on the wagon
Hell I lost more of my mind than I have found

All these drinking songs we’re playing
Make it hard staying sober in this town

I’d take a paycheck and I’d turn it
To a sack of weed and I’d burn it straight to hell

I’d drink a beer joint dry
And then the next day I’m right back at the well

If the body is a temple
I worked hard to keep the steeple spinning ’round

Then one day I heard the preacher say
Lord it’s hard staying sober in this town

Lord I pray for the courage
To greet the hardened faces with a smile

They don’t notice any difference
But then again I guess forgiveness just takes a while

Would you believe He’d give a sinner

Like me amazing grace
How sweet that sound

But it’s been hell crossing over
It’s so hard staying sober in this town

And the hardest part ain’t over
It’s so hard staying sober
In this town
