George Jones - Thousand Times A Day, A lyrics

Written by G. Nicholson and G. Burr

I gave up cigarettes

Haven't had to light one yet

It's been a year since I stopped

Same goes for alcohol

I don't touch the stuff at all

I used to drink till I dropped

(Chorus:)

But those were tough - this is easy

And it feels so good to say

Forgetting you is not that hard to do

For I've done it a thousand times a day

Oh, I've done it a thousand times a day

Friends said it would take some time

To get you off my mind

Some said I'd never let you go

But, I guess I've proved them wrong

One more bad habit gone

Just like the whiskey and the smokes

(Repeat chorus)

I've given you up for good

Just like I said I would

Oh the night you walked away

(Repeat chorus)
