Old Habits Lyrics

Lately I've been taking stock of things

Seeing what the cat drags in

Throttle down on the suffering

To let more good climb in

Over the years you stop a-wondering

Done things for far too long

You know you better be a-changing

But the timing's always wrong

Old habits

Yeah the ones that gonna save ya

Are the ones that gonna let you down

Old habits

Yeah you think you got 'em handled

But I think you oughta look around

I used to love a funny cigarette

Still do from time to time

Find me loose-lipped and rambling

A-letting go my mind

Never saw it as a problem

To Cheech out and loosen up

Somehow I reached the next level

I get high without that stuff

Old habits

Yeah the ones that gonna save ya

Are the ones that gonna let you down

Old habits

Yeah you think you got 'em handled

But I think you oughta look around

I'd often pin it on intensity

That I was a lonely fool

A little too headstrong to follow

A little social rule

Ever since I started listening

I hear what other people say

I'm drawing more out of living

For stepping out of my own way
