1. ”I’ve got to give it up I’ve got to give it up
   That stuff
   I’ve got to give it up I’ve got to give it up
   That stuff

   Tell my mama and tell my pa
   That their fine young son didn’t get far
   He made it to the end of a bottle
   Sitting in a sleazy bar

   He tried hard but his spirit broke
   He tried until he nearly choked
   In the end he lost his
   Bottle drinking alcohol

   I’ve got to give it up I’ve got to give it up
   That stuff
   I’ve got to give it up I’ve got to give it up
   That stuff

   Tell my brother I tried to write and
   Put pen to paper but I was frightened
   I couldn’t seem to get the words out right
   Right quite right

   Tell my sister I’m sinking slow
   Now and again I powder my nose
   In the end I lost my bottle
   It smashed in a casbah

   I’ve got to give it up I’ve got to give it up
   That stuff
   I’ve got to give it up I’ve got to give it up
   That stuff

   I’ve been messing with the heavy stuff
   For a time I couldn’t get enough
   But I’m waking up and it’s wearing off
   Junk don’t take you far

   Tell my Mama I’m coming home
   In my youth I’m getting older
   And I think it’s lost control
   Mama I’m coming home

   I’ve got to give it up I’ve got to give it up
   That stuff
   I’ve got to give it up I’ve got to give it up
   That stuff”
