Avett Brothers, The - When I Drink Lyrics
When I drink
I say things I don't want to say
I do things I don't wanna do
I talk mean to you
But if I think
My parents taught me to learn when I miss
Just do your best
Just do your best
It's the only way to keep that last bit of sanity
Maybe I don't have to be good but I can try to be
At least a little better than I've been so far
But when I drink
I hear things that aren't really there
Have fist fights with the air
But if I think about someone besides myself
I lived through the silver and the bell
With something to tell
Just do your best
It's the only way to keep that last bit of sanity
Maybe I don't have to be good but I can try to be
At least a little better than I've been so far
But when I drink
I spend the next morning in a haze
But we only get so many days
Now I have one less
Just do your best
It's the only way to keep that last bit of sanity
Maybe I don't have to be good but I can try to be
At least a little better than I've been so far
Oh, at least a little better than I've been so far

Avett Brothers, The When I Drink Comments
I wonder if they know how much they've helped me.
Have listened to the avett brothers for as long as I can remember. Brings me back to when I was 7 years old running around while my dad played this on guitar. The love I have for these songs
Sober since Oct 29, 2015. I listen to this song when I'm tempted. The Avett Brothers have a song for every emotion I experience. The highs and the lows.
Best song about alcoholism I've ever heard. Trying to beat it
Do you what you gotta do man
I grew up with these boys. So glad to see you guys blowing up. I can still picture Margo playing the lions hut in mt pleasant and nemo playing clubs in Charlotte .
wait so your this guy's father?
I want and trying I've been trying to stay sober but it's hard
It's really important to remember to find a support group, and totally throw your self in to it. It's hard but very worth it to get sober.
I'm struggling as well my friend. I wish you the best of luck.
We got this brother.
This is the song I show people when I turn down a drink or a blunt or whatever.
RIP Smalls. they played this at your funeral
Love this...except I don't need to drink to say all the wrong things and pretty much all those other things. Just do your best...we only get so many days.
My favorite
I love them
Kirsten Gamble you’re gorgeous
