Whiskey Around It

(álbum: Do It Anyway - 2023)

Black label on the kitchen table
Beside a low ball glass that's sitting on E
Sundown sipping while the needle's slipping
Through a George Jones vinyl Side B
I'm 3 drinks deep on a Tullahoma high
But I already know where it's going tonight

I've been trying to get a handle on missing on you
But all it got me was a handle on this 90 proof
It's been a hell of a hell and back bender
Since the gravel hit your fender and you hit me with goodbye
I'm floating up G.D creek without a prayer
Getting gone over you ain't getting me nowhere
It's no use, no two ways about it
Me loving you girl, I can't whiskey around it

I tried straight shooting my way through it
I'm still stuck between on the rocks and a heartache
It's clear as a bottle at the bottom
There ain't no drowning this blue eyed problem

I've been trying to get a handle on missing on you
But all it got me was a handle on this 90 proof
It's been a hell of a hell and back bender
Since the gravel hit your fender and you hit me with goodbye
I'm floating up G.D creek without a prayer
Getting gone over you ain't getting me nowhere
It's no use, no two ways about it
Me loving you girl, I can't whiskey around it

Girl this ninety ain't nothing
No it ain't nothing on you
And I can swear that I'm over it but I can't drink it true

I've been trying to get a handle on missing on you
But all it got me was a handle on this 90 proof
It's been a hell of a hell and back bender
Since the gravel hit your fender and you hit me with goodbye
I'm floating up G.D creek without a prayer
Getting gone over you ain't getting me nowhere
It's no use, no two ways about it
Me loving you girl, I can't whiskey around it

Me loving you girl, I can't whiskey around it
