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

They tried 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

Coz there's nothing

There's nothing you can teach me

That I can't learn from Mr. Hathaway



I didn't get a lot at 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

They tried to make me go to rehab, but I won't go go go



The man said 'why do you think you're 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, oh

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 wanna drink again

I just, ooh, I just need a friend

I'm not gonna, gonna spend ten weeks

have everyone think I'm on the mend



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

They tried to make me go to rehab, but I won't go go go!
