More Often Than Not - Jerry Jeff Walker

Well, have I not been quite far enough

How many times do you have to die now

How many sets has it been

Not another one, oh no And would you believe

That it happens more often than not

But here’s to all the people

That I’m not with tonight

Wherever they are

Well, I rolled into town last night, I’m tired

And would you believe I would like to cry now

I saw my lady laying there with a man

Not another one, oh no And would you believe

That it happens more often than not

And here’s to all the ladies

That I’m not with tonight

Wherever they are

So I went on stumbling to the town

How many times do you got to try

Someone said that she would love me Not another one, oh no And would you believe

That it happens more often than not

But here’s to all the ladies

That fell for me tonight

Whoever they are

So pass that bottle, now give it here

There’s so many reasons to drink it dry

Numb my pain maybe even kill me Hey have another one let’s go And would you believe

That it happens more often than not

And here’s to all the bottles

That I’ve drunk in my time

Whatever they were
