Lyrics
Tomorrow, I'll Quit
Copyright Ric Seaberg 1986
Well I wish you were here, but I see that you're not
And once again I'm alone with my beer and my pot
I've got tunes on the deck, but they don't sing like you
Maybe I should go inward like 12-steppers do
Is it these vices I grip, that make you afraid
To be part of my trip
Oh I ?..Maybe I'll quit
Well if ya think I'm bad karma, and ya think I'm black death
If you think I'm abusive with booze on my breath
Then I wish you'd just say it, well?maybe you did?
And I sure miss my family,. my wife and my kid,
Well Is it these vices I grip, that make you afraid
To be part of my trip, Oh I ?.maybe I'll quit
Solo
I guess I'm bent on destruction, and it may happen soon?
I've been hopin' you'd forgive me?at the saloon
So I promise I'll change? I'll just summon my will
I'll abstain from the booze and the pot and the pills, oh lover?
Is it these vices I grip, that make you afraid
To be part of my trip, Oh I guess?.tomorrow, I'll quit
Tomorrow, I'll quit
Tomorrow, I'll quit
Oh tomorrow, I'm gonna quit
