about

Wrote this song after having watched the CMT Crossroads episode featuring Jamey Johnson and Shooter Jennings. If you saw it, you’ll know what I mean. If you haven’t, watch it!

lyrics

I’m a grown man looking back
My conscience under attack
A life wasted on crack
And too much Jack

I’m a grown man looking back
Ain’t gonna cut me no slack
I always had a knack
For too much Jack

And the Devil in my mind
Says “Boy, there’s never too much Jack.”
Just too much baggage
On your life’s luggage rack

I’m a grown man, looking back
At a life I painted black
At a wife who won’t be back
Too much Jack

I’m a grown man looking back
How’d I get so off track?
Ostracized from the pack
Yeah… too much Jack

And the Devil in my mind
Says “Boy, there’s never too much Jack.”
Just too much baggage
On your life’s luggage rack
