Whiskey and Women Songtext

von David Allan Coe

I've got this weakness for women and whiskey
Its something i just cant control
I've tried hard to shake it with out any luck

It keeps burning deep in my soul
I thought you could change things and while you were with me
I never loved no one but you
But its gonna take more that whisky and women
To make me forget that were through

Baby, sometimes at night when I reach out to touch you
I wake up chilled to the bone
There is so many things i cant get used to

Specially being alone
I built my whole world around you and now that your gone
I don't know what to do
But its gonna take more that whisky and women
To make me forget that were through

I found me a woman to lay down beside me
She offered her body and soul
And I took them hoping for some silly reason

Shed help me regain self control
I left like a thief in the night when the first light of dawn
Turned the grey skies to blue

I sobered up knowing shed never be able
To make me forget that were through
