Whiskey Ballad

(album: You Can't Teach An Old Dog New Tricks - 2011)

Ahhhh

[whistling]

To all those people living in their flats not so pristine.
Who look up from the alleyways at the sky that we've both seen.
For some I now they see it from a different point of view.
The red doors painted black the sky is grey not baby blue.

So lighten up have a cup of my happy golden drink
It will taste strong to begin with, but you'll get used to it I think.
It'll wash away your sorrows and soak up your concern.
Only trouble when you wake up... not a single tables turned.

But it's alright.... it's alright.... it's alright....

[whistling]

So if you're a bit unhappy or you're slightly depressed
Just humble on to this song I wrote, relieve some of your stress
Cause when I sing the Chorus there's one thing I know for sure
A nice clean shot of whiskey is my recommended cure

So lighten up have a cup of my happy golden drink
It will taste strong to begin with, but you'll get used to it I think.
It'll wash away your sorrows and soak up your concern.
Only problem when you wake up... not a single tables turned.
But it's alright.... it's alright... it's alright..
It's alright.... It's alright.... it's alright....

So lighten up have a cup of my happy golden drink
It will taste strong to begin with, but you'll get used to it I think.
It'll wash away your sorrows and soak up your concern.
Only problem when you wake up... not a single tables turned.

So lighten up have a cup of my happy golden drink
It will taste strong to begin with but, you'll get used to it I think.
It'll wash away your sorrows and soak up your concern.
Only problem when you wake up... not a single tables turned.
