George Jones - Keepin' Up with the Jonesin' lyrics

[Verse 1] Lord, I quit the drinkin', the smokin', an' the honky-tonk life The day that a ring and a preacher, made her my wife Yeah, an' I said "I do", but I didn't, have a clue I'd miss all the whiskey an' women I tried to be true, but it's all I can do, keepin' up with the jonesin' [Verse 2] Man, this hectic, domestic lifestyle takes a while to adjust Aw, she don't seem to remember, that old rowdy rambler I was 'Cause she calls up her friends an' she tells them how good I been doin' But the truth is that I'm goin' out of my mind, keepin' up with the jonesin' [Verse 3] An' I miss gettin' high an' stayin out all night, with all my old friends An' I miss the liquor, the bartenders, the fights, the girls, an' the bands It wouldn't be so damned hard if I didn't know what I'm missin' She don't understand, I'm doin' all that I can, keepin' up with the jonesin' [Interlude] Yeah, tell me what you know about it, Possum Lord, it gets so hard, when I know what I'm missin' Sometimes I give in, start over again, keepin' up with the Jonesin' Son, I understand, it's a helluva man Keepin' up with the Jonesin' [Outro] Aw man, Thank you Mr. Jones, I sure 'nough appreciate the ride Hey is this, this a new tractor? That a satellite radio, air-conditioning, heater? Oh, a cooler
