lyrics

I Should Know Me (Better Than That By Now)

I was just thinking as I was drinking
that I could be much more than this
It’s a decision, based on a vision
of a poor man, suddenly rich

I was scheming or was I dreaming
that a beauty came my way
I was a giant and I had clients
and things had surely gone my way

I should know me
let the truth be
I ain’t goin’ nowhere now
there’s no calm sea
and no free me
I should no me
better than that by now

I stopped my cryin’ and started tryin’
like I could see the light of day
But, all my thinkin’ got me to drinkin’
until the day had passed away

repeat chorus

I should know my feet are on the ground
I should know my way around this town
I should know my heart can still be found
with you

How did I get here, drowning in cheap beer
it’s all me, still I blame you
you left me moping, time I started coping
I think one day I’ll start anew

repeat chorus
