She's a little bit of the sunshine 
Just before the rain 
A little like this quiet night 
Before the cold winds came 
She's a little bit like the weather
I never know when she's gonna change 
She's a part of my heart 
And a whole lot of my pain 

Whiskey, whiskey my old friend 
I've come to talk with you again 
Milk of mercy please be kind 
Drive this feeling from my mind 

Don't you know, somehow her smile 
Can make the day begin 
She'd take away this mask of grey
And let the sun shine in 
Now I find I've been blinded 
By the cold and wintery wind 
She disguised behind her eyes 
Oh what a fool I've been 

Whiskey, whiskey my old friend 
I've come to talk with you again 
Milk of mercy please be kind 
Drive this feeling from my mind 

Whiskey, whiskey my old friend 
I've come to talk with you again 
Milk of mercy please be kind 
Drive this feeling from my mind
