Whiskey Wrote My Name in Fire

Glass hit the table, night hit me back, I found the devil where the light turned black. Cards on the bar, and fate on the line, He said, “Boy, your soul’s got a taste like mine.”

Whiskey whispered secrets down my throat, Turned every promise into smoke. I wore my sins like Sunday clothes, And smiled where the river froze.

Whiskey wrote my name in fire, Across the night, across desire. I don’t pray, I don’t retire, Whiskey wrote my name in fire.

I kissed the flame and called it friend, We both knew where this road would end. I’ve bled the truth, I’ve burned the lies, And found my heaven in disguise.

Whiskey wrote my name in fire, And hell just called me “sir.” If the angels ever sang my song, They don’t remember her.

Smoke for ink, regret for pen, I’ll write that story once again. Every drink’s a deal renewed, And every scar’s the price accrued.

Whiskey wrote my name in fire, It’s carved in dust and sin. If I ever burn again tonight, Let the flames spell where I’ve been.

Yeah… Whiskey wrote my name in fire.
