Whiskey Days Songtext

von JB and the Moonshine Band

I got whiskey drunk last night
And wound up saying things that
I never should have said
Lord I wish I could erase the fact
That I woke up in someone else's bed
If I had any sense at all
I woulda never broke that whiskey bottle seal
'Cause my liver and your heart both seem
To always get the bad end of the deal

My whiskey drinking days are gone,
I left the bottle on your door
You can keep that purple bag,
'Cause I don't need it anymore
Baby please just take me back,
That's all I ever used to say
But now I'm sayin' my goodbyes
To my whiskey drinkin' days

Girl I hear you when you're sayin'
That the bottle ain't the place to lay the blame
But it's hard to make decisions
When you can't even remember your own name
I can't remember much of last night
And it's been that way for damn near 15 years
Well I ain't sayin' that I'll quit drinkin'
I'm just trading in my whiskey for some beers

My whiskey drinkin' days are gone,
No more Canadian no Scotch
And if I'm pouring out my soul,
It's 'cause my life is on the rocks
Baby please just take me back,
Just sounds a little too cliché
So I'm sayin' my goodbyes,
To my whiskey drinking days

Baby please just take me back,
That's all I really wanna say
Instead I'm sayin' my goodbyes,
To my whiskey drinking days.
