I heard the front door slamming shut
Sounds like a fist hitting in my gut
She’s out of here this nowhere town
It’s all my fault I wouldn’t settle down
She’d always come and pick me up
I didn’t want to wreck my pickup truck
Pour me a shot I’ll drain it down
This king of nowhere, wears a plastic crown
Another night of whiskey fever
Why do I still dream for her
Memories of yesterday
Oh, Whiskey wash this world away
Now people ask me where did she go
Sometimes I answer I don’t even know
Because it’s really hard to say
That whiskey washed my world away
I got home really late one night
To tell the truth I was ready to fight
Fell up the stairs couldn’t find my bed
That whiskey bottle barely missed her head
Another night of whiskey fever
Why do I still dream for her
Memories of yesterday
Oh, Whiskey wash this world away
My morning started with a buzzing clock
Followed up with another shot
Face in the mirror looks like a clown
Can’t spend my life always falling down
Looked around and I found my phone
Called her up won’t you come back home
Poured me a shot I drained it down
This king of nowhere, wears a plastic crown
Another night of whiskey fever
Why do I still dream for her
Memories of yesterday
Oh, Whiskey wash this world away
Pour me a shot I’ll drain it down
This king of nowhere, wears a plastic crown
Another night of whiskey fever
Why do I still dream for her
Memories of yesterday
Oh, Whiskey wash this world away
