One Is The Whiskey

(album: Mockingbird - 2015)

There ain't no reason to be in here tonight
The same smoky bar room, the same drunken fight
But I've got my reasons for not staying at home
One is the whiskey and the other one's gone

It's awful quiet living alone
So I keep a record or the radio on
But it's only sad songs that play in my head
And it's only me alone in this bed

There ain't no reason to be in here tonight
The same smoky bar room, the same drunken fight
But I've got my reasons for not staying at home
One is the whiskey and the other one's gone

By four in the morning I'm usually alright
And by two cups of coffee I'll make it all night
But by sundown tomorrow her memory will call
And I'll be a prisoner inside these four walls

And there ain't no reason to be in here tonight
The same smoky bar room, the same drunken fight
But I've got my reasons for not staying at home
One is the whiskey and the other one's gone
One is the whiskey and the other one's gone
