Take me down to whiskey river
Cause this broken heart is sinking fast
If I make it to the bottom
I won't feel a thing and she might take me back

I really oughta slow down
The late nights out on the town
It's always one more drink and then I'm comin' home
But here I am again
It's last call, 2 AM
When I get to her I know how it's gonna end

Take me down to whiskey river
Cause this broken heart is sinking fast
If I make it to the bottom
I won't feel a thing and she might take me back

Ya, I knew where I was going
When I showed up Sunday morning
She had the truck backed up and all my clothes out on the lawn
I really did it this time
Another one of them crazy all nights
So I grabbed that old Number 7 and I said

Take me down to whiskey river
Cause this broken heart is sinking fast
If I make it to the bottom
I won't feel a thing and she might take me back

I ain't no angel, but I like a good time
Hell, whenever Jack comes around you know I'll cross that line

Take me down to whiskey river
Cause this broken heart is sinking fast
If I make it to the bottom
I won't feel a thing and she might take me back

Take me down to whiskey river
Cause this broken heart is sinking fast
If I make it to the bottom
I won't feel a thing and she might take me back
I won't feel a thing and she might take me back
