Merle Haggard I Think I've Found A Way(To Live Without You) lyrics

I never thought I'd ever conquer my weakness
'Cause everybody knows that my weakness is you
But the answer came this morning
And you should be the first to hear
What a simple little thing I have to do

I think I've found a way to live without you
I think I've found a way, I can get by
I think I've found a way, I can be happy, tell me more
And all I have to do is die

I know everybody wonders, my drinking doesn't kill old me
And I myself at times have wondered why

But drinking never gave me any answer that I needed
Or the nerve for me, oh lord, to say goodbye

I think I've found a way to live without you
I think I've found a way, I can get by
I think I've found a way, I can be happy
And all I have to do is die

I think I've found a way to live without you
And all I have to do is die
