I heard it said them boys in Tennessee make
A solution aged in oak to numb this pain
When I order up me a double
It only leads me down to trouble
And it don't work the way it should on this heartache
I shouldn't drink no more
'Cause every sip of 90 proof
Gets me closer then I was before
To that cold, hard sober truth
I blame it on the Whiskey for lightin' up a memory
But it don't give a damn what I go through
I shouldn't drink no more, yeah
'Cause when I do, I think of you
It's like I'm pourin' out a bottle of the past
When I look over and those hazel eyes are back
On that barstool right beside me
Then they're gone, leavin' me empty
As the bottom of that lonely highball glass
I shouldn't drink no more
'Cause every sip of 90 proof
Gets me closer then I was before
To that cold, hard sober truth
I blame it on the Whiskey for lightin' up a memory
But it don't give a damn what I go through
I shouldn't drink no more, yeah
When I do, I think of you
I think of you
I think of every reason
I should've stopped you leavin'
Girl, I finally see it
Well, I shouldn't drink no more
'Cause every sip of 90 proof
Gets me closer then I was before
To that cold, hard sober truth
I blame it on the Whiskey for lightin' up a memory
But it don't give a damn what I go through
I shouldn't drink no more, yeah
'Cause when I do, I think of you
Oh, I think of you
I shouldn't drink no more
Damn
