Lyrics
I sure wish folks would just stop dyin'.
Just keep on livin' with all their cheatin' and lyin'.
Beats the hell outta another round of me cryin' that they'll never even hear.
I sure wish folks would stop the croakin'.
Leavin' me and leavin' my heart all broken.
No more jokin' around or soakin' up music like it's the world's best beer.
Just cut it out.
Quit the crap.
Stick around forever and I might shut my trap.
Or you could just come on back and shut it for me.
I sure wish folks would just stop kickin' off.
Wish to God they were still sore and sick.
And it'd be better than them takin' the heavenly rest.
I ain't in heaven yet.
And don't know if I'll get there...
You can keep your sneaky smile.
You're teasin' like it's pleasin' and I've had enough.
So why don't we go have a little drink tonight
And you can prove how you are oh so tough.
You are gone.
God damn you, you ain't got the right.
I don't care if you did put up a very good fight.
Ain't doin' me no good.
I rather have you than any song if I could.
But you left, you traitor.
You got some nerve.
I know how you like to throw a curve.
But this is really goin' too far.
You got no excuse that I can be buyin'.
I am heading down to the bar.
Alone.
And thanks for nothing.
I sure wish folks would just all stop
With all that dyin'.
I sure wish folks would just stop dyin'.
I sure wish folks would just stop dyin'.
You go to hell.
Maybe then I'll see you soon.
Stop dyin'.
I sure wish folks would just stop dyin'.
