| There was a time I could drink my cares away
|
| And drown out all of the heartaches that hurt me night and day
|
| When the thought of you came crashin' through, I’d have one more
|
| But now the whiskey ain’t workin' anymore
|
| I need one good honky tonk angel to turn my life around
|
| That’s reason enough for me to lay this old bottle down
|
| A woman warm and willing, that’s what I’m looking for
|
| 'Cause the whiskey ain’t workin' anymore
|
| They knew my name at every bar in town
|
| And they knew all of the reasons why I was coming round, round, round (sing it,
|
| Travis)
|
| 'Cause in my mind, peace I’d find, when they’d start to pour
|
| But now the whiskey ain’t workin' anymore (sing it, son)
|
| I need one good honky tonk angel to turn my life around
|
| That’s reason enough for me to lay this old bottle down
|
| Well, a woman warm and willing, Lord, that’s what I’m looking for (that's right)
|
| 'Cause the whiskey ain’t workin' anymore
|
| Lord, the whiskey ain’t workin' anymore
|
| That’s for sure |
