Say Why Lyrics

I spent my last dollar on some courage I could buy
Forty ounces of it at some truck stop in Ohio
Spent forty days walking and another forty high
Just for you to give me forty reasons for goodbye

Spent forty days drying 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 spent 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 lеaving and forty more you'll 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 spent my last dollar on some courage I could buy
Forty ounces of it at some truck stop in Ohio
Spent forty days walking and another forty high
Just for you to give me forty reasons for goodbye
