I hear people talking
About going cold turkey
Trying out, checking in to Betty Ford
But I just can't relate to those strange addictions
Cause my drug problems never went ignored
You see, I was drug to church on Sunday morning
I was drug to family reunions
I was drug to grandpa's farm to work every summer
And I was drug to weddings and to funerals
I was drug out the door to go to school, everyday
I was drug by my ears when I was bad
When I disobeyed, my parents were my teachers
I was drug to the woodshed by my Dad
And those drugs are still running through my veins
Still effecting what I do and say
And if kids today had those kind of drug problems
I believe the world would be a better place
verse 2
I won't claim I grew up to be perfect, far from it
But every time I start to make a slip
I can see Daddy reaching for the Good Book
And hear those payers role from Mamma's lips
And that's why I count my blessings every evening
And pray to the good Lord up above
To thank him for giving me a drug problem
And a home and a family filled with love
You see, I was drug to church on Sunday morning
I was drug to family reunions
I was drug to grandpa's farm to work every summer
And I was drug to weddings and to funerals
I was drug out the door to go to school, everyday
I was drug by my ears when I was bad
When I disobeyed, my parents were my teachers
I was drug to the woodshed by my Dad
And those drugs are still running through my veins
Still effecting what I do and say
And if kids today had those kind of drug problems
I believe the world would be a better place (2x)
