Tennessee Courage

(album: If You're Gonna Do Me Wrong (Do It Right) - 1983)

When they're at the bar, I'll be there on the stool
And forget all my cares in a hurry
And it's my belief that I'll find relief
In a bottle of Tennessee courage

Her memory keeps waiting in the light every night
Alone with the last of my always
But I'll never crawl, I can hold love from wall
With the help of some Tennessee courage

Now my good friend Jack Daniels stands tall on the shelf
And he'll go to war with my troubles
And he'll never desert this old friend when I'm hurt
And needing some Tennessee courage

It's straight ninety proof can all turn to truth
The hair on your chest in a hurry
I know I'll survive praise help from the wife
With the help of some Tennessee courage

Now my good friend Jack Daniels stands tall on the shelf
And he'll go to war with my troubles
And he'll never desert this old friend when I'm hurt
And needing some Tennessee courage

No he'll never desert this old friend when I'm hurt
And needing some Tennessee courage

So pour me some Tennessee courage
