Whiskey Chasin'

(album: Your Body Is An Outlaw - 1980)

Looks like this bad rainy weather
Kept everyone else in
I'd hoped someone would come along
And fill the space in me where your love's been

I'm sitting in a bar in the middle of the day
Just whiskey chasing all my troubles away

Another shot of southern comfort
Some water on the side
It's crazy when a man allows himself
To be so taken for a ride

But love is so strong it does what it wants to
I'm whiskey chasing memories of me and you

The music in the background
Sounds like it's pouring out of my heart
Seems like every time the saddest song has played
A sadder one will start

I wonder what's happening in the bar across the street
There's got to be a place in town
Where brokenhearted people go and meet
Hey friend another round when you're down at this end
I'm whiskey chasing the world away again

I need some more southern comfort when you're down at this end
I'm whiskey chasing my troubles away again

I'm whiskey chasing my troubles away again
