lyrics

Well I always thought I'd be happy
Living life easy come, easy go
I used to think nothing could go wrong
But I can't believe that anymore
But whiskey will solve all my troubles
As I get drunk at the end of the day
Stumble on home once again sleep alone
Not dream of it any other way

Whiskey will make all my bills disappear
And make everyone think I'm a saint
Now you might find that hard to believe
When you know that I sure as hell ain't
But whiskey will come to my funeral
And read such a sweet eulogy
They'll sing one more song, know that I'm really gone
On my grave pour one last sip for me

Look on down at a half full glass
See all of those wasted years flow past
If I make it through one more night
No matter what you think still nothin' will ever go right

Well that whiskey's been running me over
And kicking me straight down the stairs
As I limp down the street all beat up and bruised
Trying to find somebody who cares
But whiskey will make me feel better
Let me sleep through the light of the day
And when things start to slip I'll just have one more sip
Make all that pain fade away

Yeah whiskey will make me feel happy
Or at least feel like I don't care
When you turn the lights on I'll already be gone
Falling drunk down the road somewhere
Whiskey will solve all my troubles
As I fall back down on my knees
Wake up on the floor just the same as before
Oh whiskey you're all that I need

Look on down at a half full glass
See all of those wasted years flow past
If I make it through one more night
No matter what you think still nothin' will ever go right
