The Whiskey Lingers

Whiskey lingers
I never wanted to be skinny anyways
I always needed to be ready to fight
Hold on
I’m gonna do everything I said I would
Hold on
Now you’re judging me
Hold on
I’m gonna do everything I said I could
Hold on
This dog’s being judged by its fleas
You said it was yours to take
But I say it’s only mine to give
Whiskey lingers
I never wanted to be skinny anyways
I always needed to be ready to fight
We betrayed the betrayers and it felt good
Then we ran all the way to the sea
Got clean, came home
Looks like we’d never gone
It’s just a formality to get back to what we do
You said it was yours to take
But I say it’s only mine to give
Ooh
Whiskey lingers
I never wanted to be skinny anyways
I always needed to be ready to fight
Hold on
I’m gonna do everything I said I would
Hold on
Now you’re judging me
Hold on
I’m gonna do everything I said I could
Hold on
This dog’s being judged by its fleas
You said it was yours to take
But I say it’s only mine to give
