Lyrics Knockin' Over Whiskeys - Hayes Carll

Knockin' Over Whiskeys

I keep knockin over whiskeys
No ones laughin at my jokes
They got me spinnin round in circles
Like a tin can in the spokes
When i left town this mornin
With a smile upon my face
Ahh babe i swear i never knew
Id end up in this place
Run away little darlin
You dont need me anymore
Ive been out here for too long
It ain’t like it was before
If i get back home to houston
Im gonna tip my hat and cry
When i left i was a younger man
Too proud to say goodbye
Im gonna wake up in the mornin
With a conscience ten feet tall
Im gonna lay my head down wiser
Or i won’t lay down at all
Repeat chorus
You used to live out on the border
Where no one else could reach
Now i can’t ask a question
Without you givin a speech
You said, i never cared
Babe you know that isnt true
Its just the only thing you asked of me
Was the one thing i can’t do
Repeat chorus
