Written and produced by Oliver Anthony himself, the song I've Got To Get Sober was inspired by his very own struggle with alcohol. Jason Howerton stated: "In depths of despair, just about a month ago, Oliver got to his knees & broke down in tears. Though he's wasn't a religious man, that night he promised God to get sober if he helped him follow his dream".
Oliver's newly released songs have gone VIRAL since the first moment it hit the online world, and we're more than excited to have heard his composition.
I've Got To Get Sober Song Lyrics added below.
Well the life I've been given
And the way we've been living
That's the song we write till we die
Some people write songs on living just right
But I write mine on just getting by
I'll go on when
Start writing the hymn
That sounds so sweet
I've Got to Get Sober Song Lyrics continue here:
But troubles and the sand
Of the world that we're hand
Knocked me back off my feet
I gotta get sober
I gotta this hard living right
I don't know how it's gonna go
But it ain't gonna happen tonight
So pour them down strong
Till I drown
And if I wake up tomorrow
When that sun comes back around
I'll be wishing I was sober
Well the liquor and the bowl
They'vе been saving my soul
From the pain that the world's put on me
Lord, I know that upstairs
Thеre's an old man who cares
And one day he'll set me free
I'll go on when
Start writing the hymn
The sound so sweet
But troubles and the sand
Of the world that we're hand
Knocked me back off my feet
I gotta get sober
I gotta this hard living right
I don't know how it's gonna go
But it ain't gonna happen tonight
So pour them down strong
Till I drown
And if I wake up tomorrow
When that sun comes back around
I'll be wishing I was sober
Well the life 've been given
And the way we've been living
That's the song we write till we die
