First Time I Quit Drinking (Female Punk)
[verse 1] First time I quit drinking I said I was over you. No more sitting round the fire Drinkin vodka screw drivers No more being a constant liar Dreaming of you until I’m tired [pre-chorus] Then you come in through Those swinging doors. Backless dress with Cris-cross straps. I thought well, maybe just one more [chorus} First time I quit drinking Was getting over you. Second time I started Was because you made me blue. Second time that I quit To get beyond your fingertips It was all that I can do Now I’m done drinking over you. [verse 2] Second time I quit drinking I said I’d walk the line. Get my butt busy working Stead of being such a waste Stop being such a loser Always thinking of your face [pre-chorus] Then you come in through Those swinging doors. Backless dress with Cris-cross straps. I thought well, maybe just one more [chorus} Third time I quit drinking Was getting over you. third time I started Was because you made me blue. Third time that I quit To get beyond your fingertips It was all that I can do Now I’m done drinking over you. [country honky-tonk solo] [verse 3] Fourth time I quit drinking Was getting over you. Hadn’t heard your name Living out near Kalamazoo. Now this time’s for good Acting like I should Got a ton of friends With extra money to spend. [pre-chorus] Then you come in through Those swinging doors. Backless dress with Cris-cross straps. I thought well, maybe just one more [chorus} Fourth time I quit drinking Was getting over you. Fifth time that I started Was because you made me blue. Fifth time I quit To get beyond your fingertips It was all that I can do Now I’m done drinking over you. [call and response] Now I’m done drinking over you. Now I’m done drinking over you. [fading away, walking away, distant] Here you come through those swinging doors…..
