Whisky Wishes 1998 ? 2002

It was another lonely weekend, might have gone too far
I sat there drinkin? whisky by the glassful at the bar
I made a bottle full of promises to a girl I barely knew
And a bunch of whisky wishes that I wish had not come true

Oh, you know about whisky wishes, they?re so smooth and strong
And just like drinkin? whisky, you keep wishin? all night long
But like drinkin? too much whisky, it all goes to your head
I woke up with a ring upon my finger and she and I were wed

CHORUS:
Those whisky wishes, fill me with regret
So you be careful what you wish for, ?cause it might be what you get.

By the sober light of morning, she told me with her smile
How the more I drank, the more I wished to walk her down the aisle.
And how I kept a flask of whisky as she stood there by my side
And took a big old swig when the man said ?Kiss the bride.?

CHORUS:
Those whisky wishes, fill me with regret
So you be careful what you wish for, ?cause it might be what you get.

BRIDGE:
Of all the stupid things I did, this one took the cake
I knew, somehow, this sacred vow was one I?d have to break
So, I tipped my hat and shook her hand and headed out the door and said,
?I?m never going to see you or drink whisky anymore.?

Three states later, and no one knows my name
I?m drinkin? whiskey by the glassful as if everything?s the same
And there?s a new girl on my arm and we know how it?s gonna end
So, bartender, give us whiskey, cause here we go again

CHORUS:
