E
Got a whiskey drinking fever that I cannnot shake
And those girls downtown are more than I can take
 A
High-waisted rockies and the sailor's mouths
         E
And the boys at the back of the bar scream loud

G            D             E
Oh, whiskey river take me home

And I smell like cologne and cigarettes
But I ain't found a lady or a bar fight yet
I'll wait around just to stir shit up
That whiskey river flowing ain't ever enough

Oh, whiskey river take me home

'Cause I'm a heavy-drinking hard-hitting good ol'
boy
There ain't a man in this county
that you keep me employed
Can't stay sober past 11 a.m
My breath smells like my regrets again

Oh, whiskey river take me home

I had a woman in Wisconsin, and a woman in Maine
But they told me that they'd never love
a man so insane
I head to Oklahoma with the flask and a comb
Do my best to find another place I can roam

Oh, whiskey river take me home

There was no one in town that would give me a ride
So I waited for my heavy drunkenness to subside
Stole a pick-up truck from a gas station pump
I pray to the Lord for a run of good luck

Oh, whiskey river take me home

Yeah

And I was four hundred miles down Highway 10
All of a sudden I was arrested again
They told me eight years in the county pen
Or eight years in the army killing evil men

Oh, whiskey river take me home

E
Now there's sand in my boots
Sand in my eyes
Sand everywhere that sand can hide
A
How I miss those downtown girls
           E
And that whiskey river that ruined my world
G          D              E
Oh, Uncle Sam I wanna go home

I had a whiskey drinking fever that
I could not shake
And those girls downtown were more than
I could take
The high-waisted rockies and the sailor's mouths
Boys in the back of the bar screaming loud

Oh, whiskey river take me home
Oh, whiskey river I wanna go home
(That take ripped)
(That take fucking ripped dude)
