I said don't do it, babe,
Said it ain't worth it, babe
But you did it anyway
Four, five drinks and you were on your way
September first 2003
It took the life right out of me
Hung up the phone and raced out the door - broken
I tried to believe that it wasn't true
But in my heart I always knew
That being the life of the party would catch up to you
Your family was waiting and crying
For three damn hours
I said don't do it, babe,
Said it ain't worth it, babe,
But you did it anyway
Four, five drinks and you were on your way
Everything's cool on the straight away
But you took that turn
Doing eighty-five in a thirty-five,
Why, babe?
Everytime I'm home I pass that road
Driving alone and the street feels cold
Seeing your face, yeah, it's haunting me
My mind goes crazy trying to figure out
Just where you would be four years from now
And what you were thinking
When the lights came down
Doctors were trying to save you
For three damn hours
I said don't do it, babe,
Said it ain't worth it, babe,
But you did it anyway
Four, five drinks and you were on your way
Everything was cool on the straight away
But you took that turn
Doing eighty-five in a thirty-five,
Why, babe?
Who ever said that life was fair
When you live without a care
When you're invincible
When you're invincible
When you're invincible
Who thinks about leaving when you're living
I said don't do it, babe,
Said it ain't worth it, babe,
But you did it anyway
Four, five drinks and you were on your way
Everything was cool on the straight away
But you took that turn
Doing eighty-five in a thirty-five,
I said don't do it, babe,
Said it ain't worth it, babe,
But you did it anyway
Four, five drinks and you were on your way
