Paroles: Mark Chesnutt. Don't Know Why I Do It.
Have you ever stared down in the bottom of a coffee cup
And discovered that you got no reason stayin' up?
Right at the moment when
The caffeine is kickin' in
So you break down and give an old girlfriend a call
Then after two hours of hearin' her mindless talk
You remember what you dumped her for
And you wish, you hadn't opened that door
I do it and I don't know why
Hate to admit it but I think that I
Got something rollin' 'round loose inside
That never was screwed down tight
I don't know why I do it
But I do it all the time
Have you ever worked hard to line your pockets with dough
Then let a little girl and love start burnin' a hole
Knowin' that she'll break your heart
And max out your credit cards
I do it and I don't know why
Hate to admit it but I think that I
Got something rollin' 'round loose inside
That never was screwed down tight
No, I don't know why I do it
But I do it all the time
Have you ever fallin' for a girls thinkin' she's the one
And then get a funny feelin' that your ramblin' days are done?
Now you can tell she loves you so much
You have to go and screw it up
I do it and I don't know why
Hate to admit it but I think that I
Got something rollin' 'round loose inside
That never was screwed down tight
No, I don't know why I do it
But I do it, I do it, I do it
I do it and I don't know why
I got a habit of wreckin' my life
Keep leanin' left when I want to go right
You know it isn't like I haven't tried
Ah, I don't know why I do it
But I do it all the time
(Why I do it, don't know why I do it)
I don't know why I do it
But I do it all the time
And discovered that you got no reason stayin' up?
Right at the moment when
The caffeine is kickin' in
So you break down and give an old girlfriend a call
Then after two hours of hearin' her mindless talk
You remember what you dumped her for
And you wish, you hadn't opened that door
I do it and I don't know why
Hate to admit it but I think that I
Got something rollin' 'round loose inside
That never was screwed down tight
I don't know why I do it
But I do it all the time
Have you ever worked hard to line your pockets with dough
Then let a little girl and love start burnin' a hole
Knowin' that she'll break your heart
And max out your credit cards
I do it and I don't know why
Hate to admit it but I think that I
Got something rollin' 'round loose inside
That never was screwed down tight
No, I don't know why I do it

I do it and I don't know why

You know it isn't like I haven't tried
Ah, I don't know why I do it
But I do it all the time
(Why I do it, don't know why I do it)
I don't know why I do it
But I do it all the time
