Old 97s - Let The Whiskey Take The Reins lyrics

rate me

We had a smoke on the water

We laughed for all it was worth

And I called out your name but

You didn't say what you heard

We drove home in silence

The reception was not too big

I had a feelin'

You would be leavin' me

And it's so easy

To be a man in pain

Turn off your heart

And let the whiskey take the reins

I had a terrible vision

Of a world outside of this bar

But she keeps talkin' about walkin'

Away from where we are

And it's so easy

To be a man in pain

Turn off your heart

And let the whiskey take the reins

Yeah, it's so easy

To be a man in pain

Turn off your heart

And let the whiskey take the reins

We had a smoke on the water

We laughed for all it was worth
