Whiskey In The Morning - Live

Well, I ain't checked my bank account in three damn days
But I know I drank too much last night
I woke up somewhere far from my place
With some girl that I won't see twice
Well my bartender, she knows my last name
And every night we play the same damn game
She pours me whiskey from the bottom shelf
But without you I can't help myself
Well, I'm still shit-faced from the night before
Sweat pouring out of every damn pore
You know I woke up a little confused
I swear that girl looked a lot like you

But it's whiskey in the morning and beer in the afternoon
And moonshine when it's storming so I don't have to think of you
Oh, well, darling, if you'd please, don't you cut me off this time
Nursing this damn bottle just won't work this time
But it's whiskey in the morning and beer in the afternoon
And moonshine when it's storming so I don't have to think of you
Oh, well, darling, if you'd please, don't you cut me off tonight
Nursing this damn bottle just won't work this time
Nursing this damn bottle just won't work this time

I got this feeling that's been creeping in
That I might find you at the bottom of my Jim
And I know that it's no good for my health
But I'm still picking up the pieces of myself
Another night that I can't spend alone
I sat here waiting right beside my phone
But you don't call so I'll have another drink
It helps me feel so that I don't have to think

But it's whiskey in the morning and beer in the afternoon
And moonshine when it's storming so I don't have to think of you
Oh, well, darling, if you'd please, won't you cut me off tonight
Nursing this damn bottle just won't work this time
It's whiskey in the morning and beer in the afternoon
And moonshine when it's storming so I don't have to think of you
Oh, well, darling, if you'd please, don't you cut me off tonight
Nursing this damn bottle just won't work this time
Yeah, nursing this damn bottle just won't work this time
