| I think I know what killed Keith Whitley,
|
| And I wasn’t just the whiskey,
|
| Even with success there was a sad lonliness,
|
| I think I know what killed Keith Whitley.
|
| I think I know what got Hank Williams,
|
| There was an emptiness that filled him,
|
| Sitting in the back of that long cadillac,
|
| I think I know what got Hank Williams.
|
| Sometimes the teardrops can’t be measured
|
| Sometimes the blues have no name
|
| Sometimes the feeling somethings missing
|
| Grabs your heart and won’t go away.
|
| I think I know what took Ol’Johnnny
|
| And it wasn’t his tired body
|
| He went so soon after losing June
|
| I think I know what took Ol’Johnny
|
| Sometime the teardops can’t be meazsuured
|
| Sometimes the blues have no name
|
| Sometimes the feeling somethings missing
|
| Finds your heart and won’t go away
|
| I think I know what killed Keith Whitley
|
| And it wasn’t just the Whiskey. |
