Why Whisky Why?

I fell out of bed feet full of lead

And a head filled with "what did I say"?

One cigarette I'm the king of regret

But I sink 'em like it's my last day

As I numb all the pain I see memory lane

It's all coming back to me now

I try to be cool but I drink like a fool

And I always wanna buy another round

Tell me why did it have to be whisky?

Why did it have to be you?

Why did I have to get so damn drunk

That the worst of me shone through?

I was drinking with my demons

And we drank the whole place dry

Why did it have to be whisky?

Why whisky why?

Bar after bar shot after shot

I thought I had it under control

Two bottle deep making plans I won't keep

Maybe run away to Mexico?

In a bit of a whirl I proposed to a girl

Her fella didn't really approve

Cos all that I kissed was the back of his fist

Now my smile is missing one front tooth

(Tell me why)

Tell me why did it have to be whisky?

Why did it have to be you?

Why did I have to get so damn drunk

That the worst of me shone through?

I was drinking with my demons

And we drank the whole place dry

(Tell me why)

Why did it have to be whisky?

Why whisky why?

I’m never drinking again

(I'm never gonna take a drink again)

I’ll see you out at the weekend

Tell me why did it have to be whisky?

Why did it have to be you?

Why did I have to get so damn drunk

That the worst of me shone through?

(I was drinking)

I was drinking with my demons

And we drank the whole place dry

(Tell me why)

Why did it have to be whisky?

Why whisky why?

Why whisky why?

Why whisky why?

Tell me why whisky why?

Tell my why, why, why whisky why?

Tell me why, why, why, why, why whisky why?

Whisky why? Whisky why?
