Champagne Town

(album: 9 - 2019)

Red eye got delayed
Blame it on the rain
Guess I gotta stay another night
In this town full of lights
Guys like me don't like
Yeah, I flagged a yellow car
Found a smokey bar
Threw this old heart on a stool
Let me and this ninety proof
Do what we gotta do

So I'm here drinking whiskey
In a Champagne town
Are you trying not to miss me
Like I'm trying not to miss you now
Blaming you by two and me by three
It's plain to see all I'll ever be to you
Is what I am right now
Nothing but whiskey in a Champagne town

I was just a stop along the way
Just a phase you were going through
In the back of your mind you knew
What this was coming to, yeah, so did I
But it still burns tonight

Just like this whiskey
In a Champagne town
Are you trying not to miss me
Like I'm trying not to miss you now
Blaming you by two and me by three
It's plain to see all I'll ever be to you
Is what I am right now
Nothing but whiskey in a Champagne town

I'm sitting here drinking whiskey
In a Champagne town
Are you trying not to miss me
Like I'm trying not to miss you now
Blaming you by two and me by three
It's plain to see all I'll ever be to you
Is what I am right now
Nothing but whiskey in a Champagne town

Ain't nothing but whiskey, whiskey
In a Champagne town
Ain't nothing but whiskey, whiskey
In a Champagne town
