Me, the Whiskey, and the Clock
TitanChord
Me, the whiskey, and the clock
Tuesday night at the Crown & Rail
Whiskey says "I been your buddy
Through every hell and wail"
Clock says "Son, I'm gonna leave you
Whether you follow me or not"
I said "I hear both of you
But I'm still drinkin', so just watch"
Me, the whiskey, and the clock
Three old liars at a bar
Whiskey swears he'll hold me up
Clock swears he knows where I are
Lord, both of 'em have known me
Longer than my wife has stayed
Me, the whiskey, and the clock
Closin' down another day
Whiskey said "Remember Austin
The night you lost the ring?"
Clock said "Son, that was '09
Sixteen Novembers by my thing"
I said "Boys, I remember
And I don't need your help tonight"
Whiskey laughed and poured another
Clock just tick-tocked into the light
One of these is gonna kill me
One of these is gonna keep
And one of these is gonna be me
Too tired to cry or sleep
Me, the whiskey, and the clock
Three amigos 'til the end
And whichever one goes first, boys
The other two ain't friends
Me, the whiskey, and the clock
Sat together on the stool
Last call came, the barman said "Sir"
I said "Tell it to my fools"
Walked out into the mornin'
Clock still tickin', whiskey still warm
I don't know which of us is winnin'
But I know who gets hurt by the form
Me, the whiskey, and the clock
I know who gets hurt by the form
Timing is estimated — lines are spaced evenly across the track.
Me, the Whiskey, and the Clock
