Ain't Got A Shot
I pulled up a stool
Like another old fool
Trying to get her off my mind
I opened a tab, went straight for the Jack
And I threw 'em back one at a time
Hoping 90 proof might do the trick
She's a hell of a heartbreak to kick
Even whiskey ain't got a shot
Ain't a bottle of nothing 'round here
That works worth a drop
If Tennessee straight can't make her memory fade
Tell me what kind of chance do I got
Even whiskey ain't got a shot
It's the number one name
For heartaches and pains
Trusted for hundreds of years
Tough enough for cowboys
But don't look right now, boys
It sure ain't stopping these tears
Don't know why, but when it comes to us
It just don't do what it does
Even whiskey ain't got a shot
Ain't a bottle of nothing 'round here
That works worth a drop
If Tennessee straight can't make her memory fade
Tell me what kind of chance do I got
Even whiskey ain't got a shot
Yeah
I don't know why I came here tonight
I guess I'm just wasting my time
Even whiskey ain't got a shot
Ain't a bottle of nothing 'round here
That works worth a drop
If Tennessee straight can't make her memory fade
Tell me what kind of chance do I got
Even whiskey ain't got a shot
Even whiskey ain't got a shot
Like another old fool
Trying to get her off my mind
I opened a tab, went straight for the Jack
And I threw 'em back one at a time
Hoping 90 proof might do the trick
She's a hell of a heartbreak to kick
Even whiskey ain't got a shot
Ain't a bottle of nothing 'round here
That works worth a drop
If Tennessee straight can't make her memory fade
Tell me what kind of chance do I got
Even whiskey ain't got a shot
It's the number one name
For heartaches and pains
Trusted for hundreds of years
Tough enough for cowboys
But don't look right now, boys
It sure ain't stopping these tears
Don't know why, but when it comes to us
It just don't do what it does
Even whiskey ain't got a shot
Ain't a bottle of nothing 'round here
That works worth a drop
If Tennessee straight can't make her memory fade
Tell me what kind of chance do I got
Even whiskey ain't got a shot
Yeah
I don't know why I came here tonight
I guess I'm just wasting my time
Even whiskey ain't got a shot
Ain't a bottle of nothing 'round here
That works worth a drop
If Tennessee straight can't make her memory fade
Tell me what kind of chance do I got
Even whiskey ain't got a shot
Even whiskey ain't got a shot
