Whiskey Tango Nights

'You look like a handful'

That was how she broke the ice

I just laughed, she said ' bottle or draft?'

You know she didn't have to ask me twice

I said 'you look like a heartbreak'

Nothing ventured, nothing gained

Red hair and a sad smile

I could never refrain

You know the best way to get

The last one off my mind

Is to go and have myself a real good time

We got onto the next round I said 'this one's mine'

Then we went dancing in my car headlights…

Those whiskey tango nights

Six months of not feeling lonely

Two days of all out warfare

During the trial

She wanted to hurt my pride

She said 'now we're getting somewhere'

I said 'you look like you're leaving'

She fixed me with a thousand yard stare

A thousand disappointments she left hanging in the air

You know the best way to get the last one off my mind

Is to go and have myself a real good time

Last I heard she was drinking back with her kind

Down at The Galaxy Lights

You know the best way to get the last one off my mind

Is to go and have myself a real good time

Last I heard she was drinking back with her kind

Down at The Galaxy Lights
