Lyrics
THE WHISKEY SONG
CHORUS
Ooooooooo Ooooooooo
Ooooooooo Ooooooooo
I’ve been runnin’ around for far too long, livin’ on whiskey
Maybe it’s time, maybe it’s time
VERSE ONE
What’s lover if you don’t like playin’ games Goin’ out pickin’ up the cutest things
In the morning if you only have a nickname Say it to my softly...
So I feel a little less ashamed
VERSE TWO
Drivin’ down the road with tired eyes
Is the next town a glimpse of a better life
All the strangers in the bar, only cheer for a broken heart
So, I’m singin’ lies, about goodbyes
CHORUS
I’ve been runnin’ around for far too long, livin’ on whiskey
Still tryin’ to write a love song
So, maybe it’s time
BRIDGE
I’m getting’ kinda tired
Walkin’ on a wire
Like a fucked up trapeze
With no one there to catch me I could keep on runnin’
No one would be the wiser
They won’t see the liar
That hides behind the writer
CHORUS
I’ve been runnin’ around for far too long, livin’ on whiskey
Maybe it’s time, maybe it’s time
Maybe it’s time, maybe it’s time
I found a good girl
Ooooooooo Ooooooooo Ooooooooo Ooooooooo
