|
Woke up behind the steering wheel, |
|
Wonder if |
|
I've gone too far... |
|
Quick shiver, cross against the light, |
|
A curse from a cab in a strange tongue. |
|
Leave my wheels, better let them rest. |
|
The keys like ice in my shaking hands, |
|
From the neon haze to the bar stool maze, |
|
The nightlife, it sure is a strange one... |
|
It's a son of a bitch, when |
|
I get that itch, |
|
And here it comes again... |
|
Please call me |
|
Whiskey Man, |
|
When the bottle's in my hand. |
|
Hello, it's |
|
Whiskey Man! |
|
Another shot at my command. |
|
Feel old but you say |
|
I don't look it, yet. |
|
Work so hard trying to hide the miles. |
|
A seekers path, |
|
I'm on the heels of glory. |
|
All paths of glory only lead to the grave. |
|
Sweet glory's dancing on yours, |
|
She's always one step ahead. |
|
Well I know that, |
|
I'm still ridin' anyway, |
|
A mind is a terrible thing to save... |
|
It's a son of a bitch, when |
|
I get that itch, |
|
And here it comes again... |
|
Please call me |
|
Whiskey Man, |
|
When the bottle's in my hand. |
|
Hello, it's |
|
Whiskey Man! |
|
Another shot at my command. |
|
It was a fine idea long ago, in a time of fine ideas, |
|
When the August night would last into forever. |
|
So we broke the glass and hit the gas |
|
While the |
|
Summer filled the trees. |
|
In the day, we two, we were breaking through, |
|
And not dying by degrees. |
|
Like I'm trying to say, wash it all away, |
|
And here I go again... |
