Crazy Old Soldier Lyrics

by Willie Nelson

Ive had fame and fortune
Women come knock on my door
Ive live to the limit maybe a little bit more
There are so many stories of how I got out of control
Some say its a woman
Some say its my trouble soul
Im like a crazy old solider
fightin a war on my own
Just me and the whiskey
And the bottles are ten thousand strong
Youd think Id give up
as many times as Ive been hit
But like a crazy old soldier
I just dont know when to quit

Barrooms and bedrooms
Are just faces and places and names
Once for the pleasure
And Lord knows once for the pain
Ive tried to forget her
And all of the things that weve done
But as long as there are memories
Ill never hang up my gun

Im like a crazy old solider
Fightin a war on my own
Just me and the whiskey
And the bottles are ten thousand strong
Youd think Id give up
As many times as Ive been hit
But like crazy old solider
I just dont know when to quit
Like a crazy old solider
I just dont know when to quit
