Sometimes i swear you could cry whiskey tears
Because sometimes you drink that fire like water
And sometimes you skip the glass and the ice and drink it straight
Like the hurting are able
And then you pick up that guitar and you sing
About the black and white label
Oh but i, i want you to sing about me
Oh and i wanna stay up with you all night long

I wanna be your whiskey, wanna erase her memory.
Because you reach for the bottle when you're hurting full throttle
I wish that was me.
And she left you alone and that burn gets you through the cold.
What's in that river that makes you not miss her is what i wanna be
I wanna be your whiskey

Sometimes i think what the hell was she thinking
To hurt you so bad that she drove you to drinking
Oh but sometimes i am thankful she was temptation's dumb fool
'cause now i'm staring at you and i see baby your glass is still half full
Oh but i, i want you to crave me
Oh and i wanna be the one who will never do you wrong

I wanna be your whiskey, wanna erase her memory.
Because you reach for the bottle when you're hurting full throttle
I wish that was me.
And she left you alone and that burn gets you through the cold.
What's in that river that makes you not miss her is what i wanna be
I wanna be your whiskey

I wanna be your whiskey, wanna erase her memory.
Because you reach for the bottle when you're hurting full throttle
I wish that was me.
And she left you alone and that burn gets you through the cold.
What's in that river that makes you not miss her is what i wanna be
I wanna be your whiskey

Sometimes i swear you could cry whiskey tears
