Whiskey Wears Off

Honey, you give a whole new meaning to a honky tonk special
I knew you'd kill a memory just as soon as you walked in this bar
And if you want to go with me, let me assure you, baby, I'll let you
And maybe my bad judgement will take things a little too far

But when the whiskey wears off
There's no songs left for singing
When the crowd's all gone home
Be wondering, what was I thinking
When they put the stools on the bar
And that neon's turned off
When the bottle lets me down
Her memory comes around
When the whiskey wears off

Well, don't take it personal
'Cause this ain't the first time it's happened
I let that girl's memory take me to a place lower than hell
But I'll buy a few more drinks, and maybe that will buy us a couple more hours
Sure as that sun comes, baby, sober something I just can't help

When the whiskey wears off
There's no songs left for singing
When the crowd's all gone home
Be wondering what was I thinking
When they put the stools on the bar
And that neon's turned off
When the bottle lets me down
Her memory comes around
When the whiskey wears off

When the bottle lets me down
Her memory comes around
When the whiskey wears off
