Wish You Were The Whiskey

Stupid static buzzing in through the stereo
Smoke blowin' in through the patio
I'm right where I was just a week ago
Bartender slidin' me a double

Of Jameson, strong, somethin' I've been missin'
Got me feelin' good and believin'
Believin' I'm forgettin' the taste
The burn, the sting of you leavin'

I'm right where you left me
At the bottom of the bottle

Now I'm drunk, like a fireball lightin' me up
Put it to my lips and I feel that rush
Lettin' 80 proof do what it does
And I'm high, it's rockin' me through the night
Keepin' me warm, holdin' me so tight
Finally, feelin' fine, and then it hits me
I wish you were the whiskey

Straight up, waitin' by the door when I get off
It's a sure thing I can count on
The truth is comin' out a little more
And more with every shot

I should've known better
Than to run to the bottle

Now I'm drunk, like a fireball lightin' me up
Put it to my lips and I feel that rush
Lettin' 80 proof do what it does
And I'm high, it's rockin' me through the night
Keepin' me warm, holdin' me so tight
Finally, feelin' fine, and then it hits me
I wish you were the whiskey

Yeah, the whiskey, yeah, oh
The whiskey, yeah, the whiskey, yeah

Well, now I'm all alone
And your memory is hangin' over
I should've known better than to think
I could trade one for the other

And I'm drunk, like a fireball lightin' me up
Put it to my lips and I feel that rush
Lettin' 80 proof do what it does
And I'm high, it's rockin' me through the night
Keepin' me warm, holdin' me so tight
Finally, feelin' fine, and then it hits me
I wish you were the whiskey

Yeah, the whiskey, yeah, oh
The whiskey, yeah, the whiskey, yeah
