Another live recording, warts and all. Straight ahead country type folk ballad about a guy and his 'significant other', with just a couple extra chord changes thrown in for 'good measure'. A love song about substance abuse.

Lyrics
Every night you know I think about you How you turned my head and how you made me blue Still its hard to turn you away Then I think of all the time Ive spent Just paying your way instead of paying my rent And the trouble you got me into yesterday CHORUS: Then I stop and I think it over I change my mind, then I change it back Then I look over my shoulder Cause its hard to turn your back on a love like that Oh, honey how you rev me up Then you lay me down you make me think too much I dont know which way to go Then you ride me like a rodeo Just showing your teeth and curling your toes Hang onto the saddle; on with the show CHORUS: Then I stop and I think about it I change my mind, then I change it back You say Im hooked, honey I dont doubt it Cause its hard to turn your back on a love like that One of these days Im going to change my act Gonna turn you down, baby thats a fact You know its just a matter of time Gonna close my mind and open my eyes and I wont believe no more of your lies Tell everybody that I drew the line CHORUS: Then I stop and I think about you I change my mind, then I change it back Can I get through one more night without you Cause its hard to turn your back on a love like that
