Whiskey Drive - Makoto Iwabuchi

If I make it through this year, I think I'm gonna put this bottle down I guess as time goes on I'll grow to miss it less than I do now I think I'm gonna tell her that I'm gonna go away for a while 'Til I can get this demon out I know the bottle ain't to blame and I ain't trying to It don't make you do a thing, it just lets you When I'm six feet underground, I'll need a drink or two And I'll sure miss you Take me piece by piece 'Til there ain't nothing left Worth taking away from me The highway's humming in my head and it's hard to hear Won't you read my lips if I pull you near enough? Could you read my fortune in the bottom of this coffee cup? Can you tell me how to tell when I've had enough? If morning's a bitch with open arms And night's a girl who's gone too far Whiskey is harder to keep Than a woman and it's half as sweet But women without whiskey Women without whiskey Whiskey is hard to beat Whiskey is hard to beat

We pick up in New YorkExplain City Try to find a man I never got to be But when I push down on the pavement I found the whole thing so much harder than it seemed The only deal I ever signed No devil drew a dotted line The stage was set, the words were mine I'm not complainin' Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey Water, water, water sleep Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey Wake up, shake it off, and repeat It's just a phase, it's not forever It's just a phase, but I still might have a ways to go Every night around this time My friends and I retreated like a race When I really start to break it down I wouldn't trust a girl who knew about this place Barkin' on with no one left Speak softly underneath my breath "Hey world, you ain't seen nothin' left" Great, now it's rainin' Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey Water, water, water sleep Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey Wake up, shake it off, and repeat It's just a phase, it's not forever It's just a phase, but I still might have a ways to go Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey Water, water, water sleep Dream somebody missed me Wake up, shake it off, and repeat And repeat and repeat after me Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey Water, water, water sleep Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey Cut me off and pour me in the street Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey Water, water, water sleep

Dancin' on the creek bank Blue eyes and auburn hair It was the best years of our life Didn't have a care Goin' 90 miles an hour Drunk in an old dirt road Two young ass kids Back where the dogwood flowers grow Then graduation came You was big city bound I was goin' nowhere fast So I just hung around By the next time I seen you Your love had turned cold So I guess you broke my heart Back where the dogwood flowers grow White on the bloom, that April moon It could have been forever, darlin', had we stayed together But you had to go, time don't slow It took me further from your home, back where the dogwood flowers grow So I took to drinkin' I guess you wouldn't recognize me My soul's been torn and twisted Like an old dogwood tree We used to talk about forever That was a million miles ago So I'll see it if I see Back where the dogwood flowers grow White on the bloom, that April moon You ain't dead set on leavin', when you miss the one you need Just getting real, he'll remember when You had that hand to hold, back where the dogwood flowers grow The dogwood flowers grow The dogwood flowers grow The dogwood flowers grow
