Whiskey, Cryin’, Pain…
Garrick Rawlings ©2001
Here’s to the ladies you love
But you’ll never see again
Last night seemed kind of special
This morning you realize how long it’s been
Don’t fight the lonely feeling
Trying to get what you can
We’re only flesh and blood and sometimes
Old bones just need a friend
So take all those promises and lies
We all say that ain’t right
But don’t beat yourself up
Sometimes you’re just too tired to fight
Be it whiskey, cryin’, pain, runnin’ or spite
I’m for whatever gets you through the night
Pull up those ol bootstraps put on your
Brave face for a new day
Face all those faces and memories
You’re not willin’ to trade
Don’t take it so hard at least
You’re still willin’ to play
Ain’t it funny how the right little smile
Can make you feel ok
Be it whiskey, cryin’, pain, runnin’ or spite
I’m for whatever gets you through the night (2X)
Here’s to the ladies you love
But you’ll never see again
We’re only flesh and blood and sometimes
Old bones just need a friend
