I Don`t Know Why I Do It — текст песни (Mark Chesnutt)

(Tony Martin / Mark Nesler)

Have you ever looked down in the bottom of a coffee cup
and discovered that you got reason staying up
right at the moment when
the caffine`s kickin` in

So you break down and give an old girlfriend al call
then after two hours of hearing her mindless talk
you remember what you dumped her for
and wish you hadn`t opened that door

(Chorus)
I do it and I don`t know why
hate to admit it but I think that I
got something rollin` round loose inside
that never was screwed down tight
no I don`t know why I do it
but I do it all the time

Have you ever worked hard to line your pockets with dough
then let a little girl and love start burning a hole
knowing that she`ll break your heart
and max out your credit cards

(Chorus)

Have you ever fallin` for a girls thinkin` she`s the one
and you get a funny feeling that your ramblin` days are done
you can tell she loves you so much
that you have to go and screw it up

(chorus)

I do it I do it I do it
I do it and I don`t know why
I got a habit of wreckin` my life
keep leaning left when I want to go right
you know it isn`t like I haven`t tried
I don`t know why I do it
but I do it all the time
