I've been trying but I'd be lying
Lying to myself
I've been thinking a little day drinking
Thinking bout someone else

I've tried to walk the line
I've tried to stay in tune
My sober state of mind
Says I should stay with you
But the whiskey in me

Says I can do anything I want to
And I ain't got nothing to lose
100 proof and all lit up
Baby I'm on fire
Come alive in a smoky haze
Light 'em up, Kentucky straight
It's a damn good night for a good time
Might just be the whiskey in me

Most the time I'm doing fine
I keep it to myself
Bottled up, I drink too much
Half emptys my new hell

I want to start a fight
I want to disappear
I'm tired of pretending
That I belong here
And the whiskey in me

Says I can do anything I want to
And I ain't got nothing to lose
100 proof and all lit up
Baby I'm on fire
Come alive in a smoky haze
Light 'em up, Kentucky straight
It's a damn good night for a good time
Might just be the whiskey in me

I've tried to walk the line
Stay in tune
My sober state of mind
Says I should stay with you
But the whiskey in me

Says I can do anything I want to
And I ain't got nothing to lose
100 proof and all lit up
Baby I'm on fire
Come alive in a smoky haze
Light 'em up, Kentucky straight
It's a damn good night for a good time
Might just be the whiskey in me
