I Dont Even Try

by John Hiatt
John Hiatt

Biography:

John Hiatt (born on August 20, 1952 in Indianapolis, Indiana, U.S.) is an American blues and rock guitarist, pianist, and singer-songwriter. He has been nominated for eleven Grammy Awards. Hiatt's sales have never quite matched his reputation. His songs have been covered by a wide variety of artists such as Bonnie Raitt, Ronnie Milsap, Willie Nelson, Iggy Pop, Three Dog Night, and The Neville Brothers, yet it took him thirteen years to reach the charts himself.

It was champagne parties and sweet love scenes

I stack the empty cans up like a freshman in school
E A E
It's the kinda thing you're into when you ain't nobody's fool

[Chorus]

Got my socks in the oven somethin's growin' in the sink

I can't begin a peaceful day without a coupla drinks

Well, I used to be your lover now I don't even try

If you don't come back baby, I think I'm gonna die
