Lyrics
[Chorus]
So pour that Jack in my glass
Let it burn
Let it bite
Let it pass
Down to the place where the truth cuts fast
If I can't have you
I'll have this
Jack in my glass
Jack in my glass (yeah)
[Verse 2]
Lipstick on my collar
Your echo in my ear
Your ghost on the jukebox
Singin' every word I don't wanna hear
I twist that bottle
Like I'm dialing your name
One more slow swallow
And it all starts to taste the same
[Chorus]
So pour that Jack in my glass
Let it burn
Let it bite
Let it last
'Til the memories fade and the night moves past
If I can't have you
I'll have this
Jack in my glass
Jack in my glass (come on)
[Bridge]
Maybe I should quit you
Maybe I should quit him too
But every time my hands stop shakin'
I go lookin' for the both of you (oh)
One's got your sweetness
One's got your sting
Between your goodbye and his slow fire
I don't feel a damn thing
[Chorus]
So pour that Jack in my glass
Let it burn
Let it bite
Let it crash
Into every old scar
Every shattered laugh
If I can't have you
I'll have this
Jack in my glass
Jack in my glass
[Outro]
Just me and this bottle
And a barstool made of past
Keep the tab runnin'
Keep that Jack in my glass
