Smokin' cigarettes got a hold of me

Long about the summer of 1993

Rushin' in just like a fool

Used to be my golden rule

Long before I graduated school

But the one that got to me

Knocked me damn near off my feet

Came up like a southern breeze

Knocked me to my knees



(Chorus)

My only bad habit comes with lovin' you

But I don't think about you as much as you want me to

And if it gives me cancer, and if it gives me shakes

It's one of my habits, baby, I ain't gonna break

No surgeon general's gonna tell me what to do

My only bad habit, baby, comes with lovin' you



I had bout with Mary Jane

She damn near drove me insane

To the point that she had to hit the road

Wild Turkey slightly chilled

Cocaine and prescription pills

Soon enough that starts gettin' old

The promise that I make to you

Is you won't ever not feel new

You're the one that gets to me

Drop me to my knees



Repeat Chorus



And if it gives me cancer

If it gives me shakes

It's one of my habits, baby, that I ain't gonna break

No surgeon general's gonna tell me what to do

My only bad habit, baby, comes with lovin' you

My only bad habit, baby, comes with lovin' you
