I gave up coffee and cigarettes I hate to say it hasn't helped me yet I thought my problems would just disappear And all my pain would be in yesterday I poured my booze all down the kitchen drain And watch my bad habits get flushed away I thought that would keep my head on straight And all my pain would be in yesterday But it's true I'm still blue But I finally know what to do I must quit, I must quit you I thought that if I didn't go and play The sadness would get bored and go away I thought that if I didn't go astray That all my pain would be in yesterday But it's true I'm still blue But I finally know what to do I must quit, I must quit you I sold my guitar and my piano I thought that it was these that kept me low I thought if only I could try and change That all my pain would be in yesterday But it's true I'm still blue But I finally know what to do I must quit, I must quit you I must quit, I must quit you
