Lyrics
Whiskey river take my mind
Don’t let her memory torture me
Whiskey river don’t run dry
You’re all I’ve got, take care of me
Whiskey river take my mind
Don’t let her memory torture me
Whiskey river don’t run dry
You’re all I’ve got, take care of me
I’m drowning in a whiskey river
Bathing my memories mind in the wetness of it’s soul
Feeling the amber current flowin’ from my mind
And leaving a heart you left so cold
Whiskey river take my mind
Don’t let her memory torture me
Whiskey river don’t run dry
You’re all I’ve got, take care of me
I’m drowning in a whiskey river
Bathing my memories mind in the wetness of it’s soul
Feeling the amber current flowin’ from my mind
And leaving a heart you left so cold
Whiskey river take my mind (take my mind)
Don’t let her mem’ry torture me
Whiskey river don’t run dry
You’re all I’ve got, take care of me
Whiskey river take my mind
Whiskey river take my mind
