I've got whiskey
In my blood
Got a heart that beats
Like a singin' [???]
I've got the breath
Of a dyin' man
Takin' each sweet breath
Deep as he can

I've got a turntable
For a mind
Spinnin' around on the same damn thought for the hundredth time

And I've got favors
Instead of coins
And I've got firecrackers in all my joints

I got faith
In my favorite girl
Got a brother whose ashes span the world

Got a friend
Who plays guitar
His love reaches out and reaches far

I've got a garden
It's lush and green
I've got 7 of the prettiest pets that you've ever seen

I got a bottle
Living in a hutch
It's a poison and a cure
It's what they call a crutch

I've got a curse
I don't know why it's there
It's followed me around for a year
But life ain't fair
I've got a father, and I got a mom
We may have lost a limb but we try to be strong

'Cause I've got a song
Singin' in my heart
It may begin with me cryin' in bed
But hell its a start

'Cause I've got a paper, I've got a pen
And yet cryin' in bed might be how this song ends
'Cause I've got a feeling
It's a feelin that hurts
A feelin' nobody wants and no one deserves

It's made me who I am
Stronger as a man
So ill keep on lovin'
Keep on fightin'
Keep on breathin'
Keep on singin'
Keep on drinkin'
And I'll keep on livin'

"Yea, keep on livin'"

Keep on lovin'
Keep on fightin'
Keep on breathin'
Keep on singin'
Keep on drinkin'
Keep on livin'
