When The Whiskey Talks Back

Lyrics

Sat down at the table with the bottle once again Said: brother, you and me, we got to have a talk, friend Twenty-seven years we been keeping company And tonight I'm asking what you really want from me

He said: boy, I don't want nothing I been waiting on you to leave Every night you pour me out Every night you grieve I'm the silence when you can't speak I'm the courage when you can't try I'm the only one that ever stayed And I never asked you why

And I almost cried, and I almost laughed 'Cause the truth come from the throat of a brown-glass past

When the whiskey talks back You best sit down and listen 'Cause the bottle knows you Better than the wife you been kissing When the whiskey talks back You best take notes 'Cause the truth comes out Through the brown-glass throat

I said: bottle, then I owe you, but I owe my wife more And my boys, and my god, and the man I was before I'm gonna leave you on the table, gonna walk on out Gonna let your voice be the last voice I doubt

He said: I'll be here. I always am. Don't make a vow you can't make stand. And when you crawl back, and you will crawl back I won't even ask where you been at.

And I shut the door, and I drove away And I knew he'd be waiting at the end of the day

When the whiskey talks back You best sit down and listen 'Cause the bottle knows you Better than the wife you been kissing When the whiskey talks back You best take notes 'Cause the truth comes out Through the brown-glass throat

WHEN THE WHISKEY TALKS BACK WHEN THE WHISKEY TALKS BACK WHEN THE WHISKEY TALKS BACK You best LISTEN You best LISTEN (Big rock outro, slide guitar wails, drums roll, fade)
