Lyrics: Crazy Old Soldier

I've had fame and fortune, women come knock on my door
I've live to the limit and maybe a little bit more
There are so many stories of how I got out of control
Some say it's a woman, some say it's my trouble soul

I'm like a crazy old solider fightin? a war on my own
Just me and the whiskey and the bottles are ten thousand strong
You'd think I'd give up as many times as I've been hit
But like a crazy old soldier, I just don't know when to quit

Barrooms and bedrooms are just faces and places and names
Once for the pleasure and Lord knows once for the pain
I've tried to forget her and all of the things that we've done
But as long as there are memories, I'll never hang up my gun

I'm like a crazy old solider fightin? a war on my own
Just me and the whiskey and the bottles are ten thousand strong
You'd think I'd give up as many times as I've been hit
But like a crazy old soldier, I just don't know when to quit
Like a crazy old solider, I just don't know when to quit
