Merle Haggard

Merle Ronald Haggard (born April 6, 1937) is an American country music song writer, singer, guitarist, fiddler and instrumentalist. Along with Buck Owens, Haggard and his band The Strangers helped create the Bakersfield sound, which is characterized by the unique twang of Fender Telecaster and the unique mix with the traditional country steel guitar sound, new vocal harmony styles in which the words are minimal, and a rough edge not heard on the more polished Nashville Sound recordings of the same era. more »

I'm going off of the deep end 
And I'm slowly losing my mind
And I disagree with the way (ha-ha) I'm living
But I can't hold myself in line

You give me no reason for my drinkin' 
But I can't stand myself at times
And you're better off to just leave and forget me 
Cause I can't hold myself in line

Hey, my weakness is stronger than I am
Guess I've always been the losin' kind
Now I'm full speed ahead down the wrong road of life
And I can't hold myself in line

Yeah, and I'm going off of the deep end 
Hey, I'm slowly losing my mind
And I disagree with the way I've been living
But I can't hold myself in line
