Josh Abbott Band
Whiskey Tango Foxtrot
[Verse 1]
Got off late was trying to get off early
Old lady at the lot just flipped me the birdie
I Got pulled over 'cause I was in a hurry
Well thanks a lot, officer, good day, just great
[Verse 2]
And now I'm later than I was
And all I really wanted was to catch me a buzz
I finally got there but somebody's in my chair
I'm doing my best trying not swear but
[Chorus]
Whiskey Tango Foxtrot
Why the hell not say what I'm thinking?
'Cause when I'm drinking it's hard to stop once I start
Like the guy next to me talking off my ear
Thought I just came in here to have a cold beer
But guess what? It's not, it's hot
Whiskey Tango Foxtrot
[Verse 3]
Well my ex walks in with her new boyfriend
And let's just say it wasn't a happy ending
I take it as a sign for me to leave
But I can't find my keys, jeez
[Chorus]
Whiskey Tango Foxtrot
Why the hell not say what I'm thinking?
'Cause when I'm drinking it's hard to stop once I start
Like the guy next to me talking off my ear
Thought I just came in here to have a cold beer
And unwind till closing time till my cards decline
Whiskey Tango Foxtrot
[Instrumental]
[Verse 4]
I walk outside to my truck
The keys were locked inside
Just my luck
What the—
[Chorus]
Whiskey Tango Foxtrot
Why the hell not say what I'm thinking?
'Cause when I'm drinking it's hard to stop once I start
Like the guy next to me talking off my ear
Thought I just came in here to have a cold beer
But guess what? It's not, it's hot
