Lyrics:
Simple as my mama said when I was very young
She told me not to worry son
One day you’ll be some one
But here I am at twenty one
As loaded as a stagecoach shotgun
I’m sorry mamma
Please don’t look at me
When I got to Oklahoma I was seventeen
Mypapa taught work and lord he was mean
Working all day in that august heat
He taught me how to fish
My uncle taught me how to drink
Well I went California and I had me a band
And we played in all the bars in all the southern lands
We played all nightand we drank for freeAll of my boys and me
Chorus:
Now I’m 23 and there ain’t nobody who can drink like me
Soon I’ll be 24 and the lord knows that
I can’t drank no more
I know I shoulda taken it slow
It’s not the way that my life goes
Now I know
When your passed out on the floor
You’re sober by 24
Well I had a girl who loved me the whole damn time
And I’d drink my whiskey and she’d drink wine
But soon my bottle was too much to company
Yeah we’d sit on the river and we’d fish all day
And we’d drive across the country let the radio play
Seven damn years I never thought she’d leave
Now I’m 23 and there ain’t nobody who can drink like me
Soon I’ll be 24 and the lord knows that
I can’t drank no more
I know I shoulda taken it slow
It’s not the way that my life goes
Lord I know
When your passed out on the floor
You’re sober by 24
Simple as my mama said when I was very young
She told me not to worry son
One day you’ll be some one
But here I am at twenty one
As loaded as a stagecoach shotgun
I’m sorry mamma
Please don’t look at me

Your an amazing artist. I hope "23" becomes Gold Record for you. It definitely deserves to be. You keep writing and singing about life because it resignates with so many people. ❤👏👏👏

He was young and felt he could not or felt like he was not good enough.Sometimes when you are young you mess up but he is young and will find his way. With love and fans he will find his way. When you get older put past down and out make your new memories find a soul mate to love you just you the other is extra
