Crazy Old Solider Lyrics - Willie Nelson

I've had fame and fortune 

Women come knock on my door 

I've live to the limit maybe a little bit more 

There are so many stories of how I got out of control 

Some say it's a woman 

Some say it's my trouble soul 

I'm like a crazy old solider 

fightin' a war on my own 

Just me and the whiskey 

And the bottles are ten thousand strong 

You'd think I'd give up 

as many times as I've been hit 

But like a crazy old soldier 

I just don't know when to quit 

Barrooms and bedrooms 

Are just faces and places and names 

Once for the pleasure 

And Lord knows once for the pain 

I've tried to forget her 

And all of the things that we've done 

But as long as there are memories 

I'll never hang up my gun

I'm like a crazy old solider 

Fightin' a war on my own 

Just me and the whiskey 

And the bottles are ten thousand strong 

You'd think I'd give up 

As many times as I've been hit 

But like crazy old solider 

I just don't know when to quit 

Like a crazy old solider 

I just don't know when to quit
