Lovin' Wiskey

Well if you live in dusty twilight baby, that's ok
Cause there are women at the bar to greet you every day

You can take them back to lie with you and visit Jamie's room
But they can never take the pain away
Or brighten all the gloom

And if your hands are clenched with sorrow
May it help you ease your pain
Though the windows have a view of city rain, city rain

Well if you walk in constant sorrow
And you cry for me
And if you're hit with painful memories
Maybe then you'll see

That if you drown yourself in liquor
Because it keeps you company
Then just remember who you're losing
And be proud to set me free

Because it don't talk back or disagree
It just makes you see so hazily
But in de morning light your life is scattered with the wind,
scattered with the wind

And they tell you on the telephone to let him go
I said they tell you he's a sinking ship
And he's tryin' to pull you down
Don't you know

That every time you call me up and say you want me back
You know you break my heart
You said you want me to come back home and try again
You want me to make a brand new start

But if wisdom says to let him go
Then it's hell because you just don't know
Until you've tried to love a man who's lovin' whiskey
Lovin' whiskey

My baby left me for a bottle
And the lure of the nightlife
Good times and crazy women
And another glass of tangueray

But if wisdom says to let him go
Then it's hell because you just don't know
Until you've tried to love a man who's lovin' whiskey
Lovin' whiskey
