[Lyric] I Do What I Must (Asleep at the Wheel)

[Verse 1]
A lotta my friends will overhear
"We really had a time
We spoked a lot of cigarettes
And drank a lotta wine."
And I couldn't see them to the door
But I guess they didn't mind
I just do what I must to keep goin'
But it's startin' to take more all the time

[Verse 2]
Now, my days drag on on much longer
So the nights seem shortened down
I spend a lot of time these days
Drinkin' in the town
And ask about good friends I knew
I just can't seem to find
I just do what I must to keep goin'
But it's startin' to take more all the time

[Verse 3]
I had a lovebug; she left me
I had a house that's been sold
I sometimes work for a dollar or two
To stay out of the cold
I'm afraid for my life that has started
'Cause there's nothing else I have to find
I just do what I must to keep goin'
But it's startin' to take more all the time
[Outro]
Oh, I—!
