Patty Loveless Lyrics
"A Thousand Times a Day"

(Gary Burr - Gary Nicholson)

I gave up cigarettes, haven't had to light one yet
It's been a year since I stopped
Same goes for alcohol, I don't touch the stuff at all
I used to drink till I dropped.

But days were tough, this is easy
And it feels so good to say
Forgetting you is not that hard to do
For I've done it a thousand times a day.
Oh, I've done it a thousand times a day.

Friends said it would take some time to get you off my mind
Some said I'd never let you go
But I guess I've proved them wrong one more bad habit gone
Just like the whiskey and the smokes.

But those were tough, this is easy
And it feels so good to say
Forgetting you is not that hard to do
For I've done it a thousand times a day.
Oh, I've done it a thousand times a day.

--- Instumental ---

I've given you up for good just like I said I would
Oh, the night you walked away.

Forgetting you is not is not that hard to do
For I've done it a thousand times a day.
Oh, I've done it a thousand times a day...
