lyrics

It was a bad ending from the start
I’m a walking wounded with a broken heart
So I made my way to the nearest bar
To seal my wound before it left a scar
I bought me a bottle, grabbed me a seat
I began to pour, drink and repeat

Last night I was whiskey high, today it shows
I don’t know when I’ve felt so low
But it sure felt good going down
That whiskey sure felt good going down

Every little kiss, every little hug
Felt just like we were in love
When you said “baby this is the end”
I made that bottle my new best friend
I betcha it was a helluva sight
To me see make love to the whiskey last night

I was whiskey high, today it shows
I don’t know when I’ve felt so low
But it sure felt good going down
That whiskey sure felt good going down
Oh, going down

Just so you know, I never touch the stuff
But I wanted to die and I never bluff
I wanted the pain to disappear
Guess the hole in my heart is a souvenir
And I betcha I drink that whiskey again
‘Cause it can knock me out like a rolling pin

Last night I was whiskey high, today it shows
I don’t know when I’ve felt so low
But it sure felt good going down
That whiskey sure felt good going down

Last night I was whiskey high
I was whiskey high, I was whiskey high
Today I’m low, today I’m low
O I’m so damn low
From my whiskey high
