Lyrics Sturgill Simpson

Sturgill Simpson

I'd Have to Be Crazy

I'd have to be crazy to stop all my singing

and never play music again

You'd call me a fool if I grabbed up my top hat

and ran out to flag down the wind

I'd have to be weird to grow me a beard

just to see what the rednecks would do

I'd have to be crazy plum out of my mind

to fall out of love with you

You know I've done weird things, told people I've heard things

When silence was all in abounds

Been days when it pleased me to crawl on my knees

following ants as they crawled across the ground

Been insane on a train but I'm still me again

and the place where I hold you is true

But I'd have to be crazy, plum out of my mind

To fall out of love with you

You know I don't intend to

But should there come a day

when I say that I don't love you

You can lock me away

Well it sure would be dingy to live in an envelope

in a world waiting along for a stamp

You'd swear I was loco to rub for a genie

while burning my hand on a lamp

I may not be normal but nobody is

so I'd like to say before I'm through

I'd have to be crazy, plum out of my mind

to fall out of love with you
