Lyrics
When I’m finally sittin’ in the old man's chair
Rockin’ back and forth, lookin’ worse for wear
Fulfillment stretched from ear-to-ear
Glass in hand, I’ll be thinkin’ ‘bout love
Drinkin’ and thinkin’ ‘bout love
Live a good damn life, no regrets or fear
And when my time is up, I’ll be thinkin’ ‘bout
Love
I’ll be thinkin’ ‘bout love
Drinkin’ and thinkin’ ‘bout love
I’ll be thinkin’ ‘bout love
Drinkin’ and thinkin’ ‘bout love
When I’ve lost my way down the winding road
And the map’s being drawn up as I go
Find myself at another fork
Take a swig for courage, I’ll be thinkin’ ‘bout love
Drinkin’ and thinkin’ ‘bout love
A risk leading to an impending doom
Is a life worth living, I said a life worth living, and I’ll be thinkin’ ‘bout
Love
I’ll be thinkin’ ‘bout love
Drinkin’ and thinkin’ ‘bout love
I’ll be thinkin’ ‘bout love
I’ll be thinkin’ ‘bout love
I’ll be thinkin’ ‘bout love
I’ve been chasing you through the rain
Now my boots are muddy and my pride is strained
And my heart’s so heavy, I can’t bear the weight
Of another cold lonely night (hey! hey! hey!)
Now my palms are sweaty and my patience drained
And my armor’s cracked, but the scars look great
The whisky burnin’ down the memories
So I’ll keep drinkin’ but I’ll quit thinkin’ ‘bout love
I’ll quit thinkin’ ‘bout love
I’ll quit thinkin’ ‘bout love
I’ll quit thinkin’ ‘bout love
For now…
Love
I’ll be thinkin’ ‘bout love
Drinkin’ and thinkin’ ‘bout love
I’ll be thinkin’ ‘bout love
I’ll be thinkin’ ‘bout love (I’ll be thinkin’ ‘bout love)
(I’ll be thinkin’ ‘bout) I’ll be thinkin’ ‘bout love
I’ll be thinkin’ ‘bout love
