Whisky and Tears

You know the life that I ve lived ain t been easy,
I ve had my share of heartache and pain
Between the women I loved and the women that left me
And the women that still curse my name
But my heart s on the mend, cause I m shit-faced again,
My bottle s run dry And my money s all spent
The Sun s coming up and I can t find my truck
I m shit out of luck, againâ¦
Now I ve drank all there is to be drunk around here
I ve pissed away everything that I held dear
Now I m getting drunk on my own bitter tears
God damn that Whisky and Beer
Between the highways and byways and backwater roads
I still always end back here
thinking about how my life could ve been
if it weren t for the whiskey and beer
no eulogy writing on the tomb stone, besides
my grave s just the bottle i finished last night
now the sun s coming up but I don t give a
cause i feel like my life s at an end
Now I ve drank all there is to be drunk around here
I ve pissed away everything that I held dear
Now Iâm getting drunk on my own bitter tears
God damn that Whisky and Beer
The first shot rang out after sundown
The second shot hit me right here
And I swear to this day
I wouldnât be that way
If it werenât for the whiskey and beer
Now Iâve drank all there is to be drunk around here
Iâve pissed away everything that I held dear
Now Iâm getting drunk on my own bitter tears
God damn that Whisky and Beer
repeat chorus...
