“Whiskey Fever” (woman’s Version)

I heard the front door slamming shut

Sounds like a fist hitting in my gut

He’s out of here this nowhere town

It’s all my fault I wouldn’t settle down

He’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 queen of nowhere, wears a plastic crown

Another night of whiskey fever

Will I always be a dreamer

Memories of yesterday

Oh, Whiskey wash this world away

People asked where did he 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 his head

Another night of whiskey fever

Will I always be a dreamer

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 him up won’t you come back home

Poured me a shot I drained it down

This queen of nowhere, wears a plastic crown

Another night of whiskey fever

Yes, I’ll always be a dreamer

Memories of yesterday

Oh, Whiskey wash this world away

All my whiskey poured away

Down the drain unblocked the pain

Going away for twenty eight

A sober life will be my fate

Now people ask me where did he go

Sober I answer I don’t even know

Because it’s really hard to say

That whiskey washed my world away

Another night of whiskey fever

Sober now but still a dreamer

Memories of yesterday

Whiskey washed my world away
