[Verse 1: Jon Pardi]
We can fight the fight all damn night
But in the morning light, the lies reveal the truth
Yeah, the sober truth
We wake up to reality
And play the blame game ruthlessly
Like it woulda turned out different
If we woulda stopped at one or two

[Chorus: Jon Pardi & Lauren Alaina]
But don't blame it on whiskey
No, this ain't about a drink
Don't let alcohol take the fall
For all these thoughts I think
Let's get down to the bottom
And not just the bottom of the glass
This heartbreak train's pickin' up steam
And we're standin' on the track
Yeah, I can blame it on you
Or you can blame it on me
But don't blame it on whiskey

[Verse 2: Lauren Alaina, Jon Pardi & Lauren Alaina]
So here we are, and there it is
This line we're leaning up against
Wonderin' which way we're gonna fall
And how we're gonna answer that last call
[Chorus: Jon Pardi & Lauren Alaina]
But don't blame it on whiskey
No, this ain't about a drink
Don't let alcohol take the fall
For all these thoughts I think
Let's get down to the bottom
And not just the bottom of the glass
This heartbreak train's pickin' up steam
And we're standin' on the track
Yeah, I can blame it on you
Or you can blame it on me
But don't blame it on–

[Bridge: Jon Pardi & Lauren Alaina]
Whiskey might be strong
But it ain't got nothin' on what's goin' on here

[Chorus: Jon Pardi & Lauren Alaina, Jon Pardi & Lauren Alaina]
Let's get down to the bottom
And not just the bottom of the glass
This heartbreak train is pickin' up steam
And we're standin' on the track
Yeah, I can blame it on me (I can blame it on me)
Or you can blame it on me (Or you can blame it on me)
But don't blame it on whiskey
Yeah, I can blame it on me
You can blame it on me
But don't blame it on whiskey
