I'm Drinkin' Tonight
I've been walking straight too long
On a thin sharp-line and fading, almost gone
Feeling my shadow get close
Even it knows there's a hard raining coming on
Now, I'm drinking tonight, gonna give up the fight
The only thing stronger than you is whiskey
I'm, I'm letting you in, the ghost of my sin
And the taste of goodbye on your lips when you kiss me
'Til I can't take anymore, poison's the cure
To hell with your memory, gonna burn it down
I choke back tears 'til I damn near drown
What do you do with a man
With dirt on his hands and a deep hole dug in the ground?
Now, I'm drinking tonight, gonna give up the fight
The only thing stronger than you is whiskey
I'm, I'm letting you in, the ghost of my sin
And the taste of goodbye on your lips when you kiss me
'Til I can't take anymore, poison's the cure
I'm chasing my demons with a shot of crown
Let 'em all have their way 'til I see the light of day, but tonight
I'm drinking tonight, gonna give up the fight
The only thing stronger than you is whiskey
I'm, I'm letting you in, the ghost of my sin
And the taste of goodbye on your lips when you kiss me
I can't take anymore, I hope the poison's the cure
I can't take anymore, I hope the poison's the cure
On a thin sharp-line and fading, almost gone
Feeling my shadow get close
Even it knows there's a hard raining coming on
Now, I'm drinking tonight, gonna give up the fight
The only thing stronger than you is whiskey
I'm, I'm letting you in, the ghost of my sin
And the taste of goodbye on your lips when you kiss me
'Til I can't take anymore, poison's the cure
To hell with your memory, gonna burn it down
I choke back tears 'til I damn near drown
What do you do with a man
With dirt on his hands and a deep hole dug in the ground?
Now, I'm drinking tonight, gonna give up the fight
The only thing stronger than you is whiskey
I'm, I'm letting you in, the ghost of my sin
And the taste of goodbye on your lips when you kiss me
'Til I can't take anymore, poison's the cure
I'm chasing my demons with a shot of crown
Let 'em all have their way 'til I see the light of day, but tonight
I'm drinking tonight, gonna give up the fight
The only thing stronger than you is whiskey
I'm, I'm letting you in, the ghost of my sin
And the taste of goodbye on your lips when you kiss me
I can't take anymore, I hope the poison's the cure
I can't take anymore, I hope the poison's the cure
