Bad Bad Whiskey - Charles Brown

This place looks like everything you wanted Red roses, white doves, and such Church wedding bells, the hell is she thinkin'? There's no green 'round her finger from us I came to this place fully conscious Well aware that my actions are unjust That man up there said I'd have to hold my peace forever Unless something's said now and stand up That's the reason I came here in the first place So forgive me for what I'm to say After so many years, forever and ever Turned into bad weather today And the rain came down Washed away all that he'd found What's the reason for keepin' them around? Can't place them together That house on the hill there's a prison Spent too many years turned to hell Oh, how if those old walls could listen and hear me Oh, how much these old walls could tell As an old man, I know I should reason But I could torch this old place, might as well With a can full of diesel, and a booklet of matches Let's see what these ashes unveil And the rain came down And washed away all that he found What's the reason for keepin' them around? Can't place them together Yeah, the rain came down Washed away all that he found What's the reason for keepin' them around? Blow over, bad weather Blow over, bad weather

Back to high school love The kind without the drugs We were just two city kids We would run around And tear a few things down But that's the worst that it would get Bad bad bad, we're in trouble now Or so, so, so they say They think they've got us figured out But we kinda like it, that way It was just a crush But wild and dangerous You and I were out too late Started in my car Might've gone too far But we were down to make mistakes Bad, bad, bad, we're in trouble now Or so, so, so they say They think they've got us figured out But we kinda like it, that way They say we're going to hell Let's find a cheap motel and stay a couple nights And when our time is done, we'll go back on the run Do whatever we like Bad, bad, bad, we're in trouble now Or so, so, so they say They think they've got us figured out But we kinda like it, that way They say we're going to hell Let's find a cheap motel and stay a couple nights And when our time is done, we'll go back on the run Do whatever we like They say we're going to hell Let's find a cheap motel and stay a couple nights And when our time is done, we'll go back on the run Do whatever we like

We take a drive just to sing along Every word of them Rolling Stones Stacey's mom had it goin' on Lived three doors down, I can see her now Her daughter had a heart that was wild and free If you Blink-182, then you'd miss me and her Every verse had a story Yeah, them pocket lighter nights lit up our days of glory Back when the air guitars were the only sound And you'd strum the chords and I'd put the pedal down Two-man dashboard band rollin' through this town Had that rearview shakin' to the kick-drum beat Leanin' West Coast deep in the bucket seats All I ever wanted was right there in that car Back when we were rockstars (We're running all night, chasing down a dream) (Howling at the moon, baby, you and me) Back when we were rockstars (We're running all night, chasing down a dream) (Howling at the moon, baby, you and me) Nothin' like freedom two windows down You singin' along, still hear it now Way too loud and sometimes off key But you sounded like an angel to me You'd make fun of how I threw my head And threw my fingers up in the air Thought I was Kurt Cobain or Jimmy Page You were at side seat, center stage Back when the air guitars were the only sound And you'd strum the chords and I'd put the pedal down Two-man dashboard band rollin' through this town And that rearview shakin' to the kick-drum beat Leanin' West Coast deep in the bucket seats All I ever wanted was right there in that car Back when we were rockstars Back when we were rockstars We never ended up on MTV Or heard our voices on a CD But in your eyes and in my arms We were each other's rockstars Back when the air guitars were the only sound And you'd strum the chords and I'd put the pedal down Two-man dashboard band rollin' through this town Had that rearview shakin' to the kick-drum beat Leeanin' West Coast deep in the bucket seats All I ever wanted was right there in that car Back when we were rockstars (We're running all night, chasing down a dream) (Howling at the moon, baby, you and me) Yeah, back when we were rockstars (We're running all night, chasing down a dream) (Howling at the moon, baby, you and me) Back when we were rockstars (We're running all night, chasing down a dream) (Howling at the moon, baby, you and me) You and me were rockstars (We're running all night, chasing down a dream) (Howling at the moon, baby, you and me) oh yeah (Running all night, chasing down a dream) Yeah, we were runnin' all night, chasing down a dream Howlin' at the moon, baby, you and me
