They tried to make me go to rehab But I said no, no, no Yes I've been black but when I come back You'll know, know, know I ain't got the time And if my daddy thinks I'm fine Just try to make me go to rehab But I won't go, go, go
I'd rather be at home with Ray I ain't got seventy days 'Cause there's nothing, there's nothing you can teach me That I can't learn from Mr. Hathaway
I didn't get a lot in class But I know it don't come in a shot glass
They tried to make me go to rehab But I said no, no, no Yes I've been black but when I come back You'll know, know, know I ain't got the time And if my daddy thinks I'm fine Just try to make me go to rehab But I won't go, go, go
The man said "Why you think you here?" I said "I got no idea I'm gonna, I'm gonna lose my baby So I always keep a bottle near"
He said "I just think you're depressed Kiss me, here baby, and go rest"
They tried to make me go to rehab But I said no, no, no Yes I've been black but when I come back You'll know, know, know
I don't ever want to drink again I just, ooh I just need a friend I'm not gonna spend ten weeks And have everyone think I'm on the mend
And it's not just my pride It's just 'til these tears have dried
They tried to make me go to rehab But I said no, no, no Yes I've been black but when I come back You'll know, know, know I ain't got the time And if my daddy thinks I'm fine Just try to make me go to rehab ButI won't go, go, go
