Lyrics
If I make it through this year, I think I'm gonna put this bottle down
I guess as time goes on I'll grow to miss it less than I do now
I think I'm gonna tell her that I'm gonna go away for a while
'Til I can get this demon out
I know the bottle ain't to blame and I ain't trying to
It don't make you do a thing, it just lets you
When I'm six feet underground, I'll need a drink or two
And I'll sure miss you
Take me piece by piece
'Til there ain't nothing left
Worth taking away from me
The highway's humming in my head and it's hard to hear
Won't you read my lips if I pull you near enough?
Could you read my fortune in the bottom of this coffee cup?
Can you tell me how to tell when I've had enough?
If morning's a bitch with open arms
And night's a girl who's gone too far
Whiskey is harder to keep
Than a woman and it's half as sweet
But women without whiskey
Women without whiskey
Whiskey is hard to beat
Whiskey is hard to beat
Writer(s): John Cooley
