Lyrics
Whiskey Breath Blues
By Darrin James
We're going out pretty baby, put on that brand new dress
We're going out pretty lady, put on that brand new dress
If you ain't goin' with me, I'm gonna make myself a mess
I'll be drinkin,' drinkin,' drinkin,' drinkin' all night long
If I be home by morning, I'll be singin' my whiskey breath song
You take me to your church, you're prayin' on your knee
You take me to that church, I'm prayin' on my knee
I'd ask the Lord to ease my pain, but I'm not sure I really believe
I'll be drinkin,' drinkin,' drinkin,' drinkin' all night long
If I be home by morning, I'll be singin' my whiskey breath song
The Lord ain't listening, ain't listening to my call
I swear if the Lord ain't a woman, then there ain't no Lord at all
