What the Whisky Won't Do (feat. Jess Moskaluke)
When it's on the rocks
It gets me on my feet again
Gets me halfway to okay
Gets me downtown with my friends
When it's shot for shot
It goes right to my head
I'm alright, I'm doing fine
Gets me good as I can get
For a minute I was thinking
It was getting me close
But by the bottom of the bottle I know
What the whisky won't do
Is hit me strong enough
To forget about us
And I've had a few
Even one hundred proof
No, it can't change the fact
That I can't get you back
Oh, it's true
What the whisky won't do
Is get me over you
The first sip will make me smile
My girlfriends do their best
Drinking doubles like I'm single
But I don't feel it yet
When that bourbon hits the ice
I get that old Kentucky high
But only for a moment or two
What the whisky won't do
Is hit me strong enough
To forget about us
And I've had a few
Even one hundred proof
No, it can't change the fact
That I can't get you back
Oh, it's true
What the whisky won't do
Is get me over you
For a minute I was thinking
It was getting me close
But by the bottom of the bottle I know
(I know, I know)
What the whisky won't do
Is hit me strong enough
To forget about us
And I've had a few
Even one hundred proof
No, it can't change the fact
That I can't get you back
Oh, it's true
What the whisky won't do
(What the whisky won't do)
Is get me over you
(Get me over you)
Is get me over you
(What the whisky won't do)
Is get me over you
It gets me on my feet again
Gets me halfway to okay
Gets me downtown with my friends
When it's shot for shot
It goes right to my head
I'm alright, I'm doing fine
Gets me good as I can get
For a minute I was thinking
It was getting me close
But by the bottom of the bottle I know
What the whisky won't do
Is hit me strong enough
To forget about us
And I've had a few
Even one hundred proof
No, it can't change the fact
That I can't get you back
Oh, it's true
What the whisky won't do
Is get me over you
The first sip will make me smile
My girlfriends do their best
Drinking doubles like I'm single
But I don't feel it yet
When that bourbon hits the ice
I get that old Kentucky high
But only for a moment or two
What the whisky won't do
Is hit me strong enough
To forget about us
And I've had a few
Even one hundred proof
No, it can't change the fact
That I can't get you back
Oh, it's true
What the whisky won't do
Is get me over you
For a minute I was thinking
It was getting me close
But by the bottom of the bottle I know
(I know, I know)
What the whisky won't do
Is hit me strong enough
To forget about us
And I've had a few
Even one hundred proof
No, it can't change the fact
That I can't get you back
Oh, it's true
What the whisky won't do
(What the whisky won't do)
Is get me over you
(Get me over you)
Is get me over you
(What the whisky won't do)
Is get me over you
