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) | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Chords fingeringsA D E G |
