I'll spend my last dollar
on some courage I could buy
Forty ounces of it
at some truck stop in Ohio
Spend forty days walkin'
And another forty high
Just for you to give me
forty reasons for goodbye
Spend forty days dryin' out
And forty days sober
Smokin' cigarettes and quotin'
Bible verses on the sofa
You said all's not lost
Just an eye for an eye
So I carried my cross
to the bar last night
Say why
Yeah say why
Yeah say why
Say why
I'll spend my last dollar
on some courage I could buy
Forty ounces of it
before you tell me goodbye
Still drove forty hours
And I'd drive forty more
Forty days in the desert
just to wind up at your door
Forty ouncеs forty minutes
Forty days and forty ways
Forty reasons that you're
lеavin' and forty more to stay
Say why
Say why
Say why
No
Say why
Say why
Say why
Say why
Say why
Say why
Say why
Say why
I'll spend my last dollar
on some courage I could buy
Forty ounces of it
at some truck stop in Ohio
Spend forty days walkin'
And another forty high
Just for you to give me
forty reasons for goodbye
