Red Whiskey & Wine

There's an open sign at the union line But it's been closed for years I was let go with nothing to show But blood, sweat, and tears That was the start that took my heart And made you leave this town You took the kids and all I did Was sink deeper down And it's hard to know How to mix that red whiskey and wine Strung out on hard love I've been down that road too many times The revenue man found my land Back taxes on the farm That took my wheels and my corn fields Boarded up my barn I go down to the edge of town To Willie's Whiskey Bar They serve me well and hear me tell The story of a broken heart And it's hard to know How to mix that red whiskey and wine Strung out on hard love I've been down that road too many times If I could you know I would Turn back the hands of time Treat you right, never see the sight Of this red whiskey and wine And it's hard to know How to mix that red whiskey and wine Strung out on hard love I've been down that road too many times And it's not the way that I take it down But more the reasons why Drown in my memory The ones of you and me wreck my mind In the whiskey and wine In the whiskey and wine
