Takin' My Time Lyrics - 1973

[ Buy Takin' My Time ]

Yeah baby, i've been drinking,
And i shouldn't come by i know
But i found myself in trouble darling,
And i had nowhere else to go

Got some whiskey from a bar man,
Got some cocaine from a friend
I just had to keep on moving,
Till i was back in your arms again
----
Well i'm guilty, yeah i'm guilty,
I'll be guilty for the rest of my life
How come i never do,
What i'm supposed to do
How come nothing that i try to do ever turns out right
----
Well you know how it is with me baby,
You know i just can't stand myself
It takes a whole lot of medicine,
For me to pretend to be somebody else.
