Michael Ray - Live Without You Lyrics

Everybody's got it, that thing their heart beats for
It's what keeps 'em breathin' and the reason they were born
I thought mine was fishin', cussin' and drinkin' beer
But what keeps my ticker tickin' is suddenly switchin' gears
'Cause you came along, messed this old boy up
And girl, I'm good as gone if I don't have your love

Like the blues need Mississippi or whiskey needs a Coke
Nitty needs some gritty, a hippie needs a toke
Girl, I ain't no different, got my gotta have it too
And I'd be six feet in the ground if I had to live without you
Yeah, yeah
Girl, if I had to live without

Coffee, who needs it?
Girl, you done wound me up
And my truck, just keep it
'Cause I don't mind gettin' stuck with you
At home, alone, I'm country boy complete
If I didn't have you, girl, there wouldn't be nothing

Like the blues need Mississippi or whiskey needs a Coke
Nitty needs some gritty, a hippie needs a toke
Girl, I ain't no different, got my gotta have it too
And I'd be six feet in the ground if I had to live without you

I'd be a dead man walkin'
If I had to live without you
Girl, I ain't just sweet talkin', no, no
Yeah, my lips need your kisses
My boots need your dance
I don't need to live without you, girl, to know that I can't

Yeah, like the blues need Mississippi or whiskey needs a Coke
Nitty needs some gritty, a hippie needs a toke
Girl, I ain't no different, got my gotta have it too
And I'd be six feet in the ground if I had to live without you

(Blues need Mississippi or whiskey needs a Coke)
Oh, I couldn't live without you, girl (nitty needs some gritty, a hippie needs a toke)
I'd be a dead man walkin' (girl, I ain't no different, got my gotta have it too)
No, I ain't just sweet talkin', no, no (And I'd be six feet in the ground)
If I had to live without you
