Sweet Whiskey Lies
Tonight He's still a Contender
Headed Straight for the Top
He's got the world in the palm of his hand
He's got his best years before him
And faith in his dreams and true loves still a part of the plan
And for a few happy hours
He can almost believe that it turned out like he hoped it would be
He ain't getting no younger
But he still feels the hunger
As he watches the world pass him by
Between the bottle and the bar stool
There's just one more dam fool
Believing those sweet whiskey lies
Believing those sweet Whiskey lies
He starts second guessing the road he has taken
And all of the choices he's made
So he orders another
For a little while longer he'll be keeping the heartache at bay
But when the light of the morning comes shining through
He'll be facing the cold bitter truth
He ain't getting no younger
But he still feels the hunger
As he watches the world pass him by
Between the bottle and the bar stool
There's just one more dam fool
Believing those sweet whiskey lies
Believing those sweet whiskey lies
Believing those sweet whiskey lies
Headed Straight for the Top
He's got the world in the palm of his hand
He's got his best years before him
And faith in his dreams and true loves still a part of the plan
And for a few happy hours
He can almost believe that it turned out like he hoped it would be
He ain't getting no younger
But he still feels the hunger
As he watches the world pass him by
Between the bottle and the bar stool
There's just one more dam fool
Believing those sweet whiskey lies
Believing those sweet Whiskey lies
He starts second guessing the road he has taken
And all of the choices he's made
So he orders another
For a little while longer he'll be keeping the heartache at bay
But when the light of the morning comes shining through
He'll be facing the cold bitter truth
He ain't getting no younger
But he still feels the hunger
As he watches the world pass him by
Between the bottle and the bar stool
There's just one more dam fool
Believing those sweet whiskey lies
Believing those sweet whiskey lies
Believing those sweet whiskey lies
