Lyrics

Whiskey Bay
Written by: Drew Rice



Well I?m out on Whiskey Bay, but it?s only in my mind
I?m sitting on this barstool trying to find
Some sort of answer, maybe a course to take
I?m a vessel lost at sea, with a troublesome wake

So pour me, another round
I?m trying to keep this sinking ship from going down
And though there are storm clouds all around me
In here there is no rain
And I?m taking on the whiskey to ease the pain

She was blue clear skies, and calm seas
And the day she left, well that kicked up the breeze
Now the gale winds are blowing, the seas are larger
So I sail in here each night, to find safe harbor

So pour me, another round
I?m trying to keep this sinking ship from going down
And though there are storm clouds all around me
In here there is no rain
And I?m taking on the whiskey to ease the pain

Oh I know there will come a day
When I can?t bail no more
I just hope I?m strong enough
To swim ashore

So won?t you pour me, another round?
I?m trying to keep this sinking ship from going down
And though there are storm clouds all around me
In here there is no rain
And I?m taking on the whiskey to ease the pain

Yeah there are storm clouds all around me
So I?ll wait for a brighter day
Until then I?ll be out on Whiskey Bay
