Put the Whiskey Down

I woke up this mornin'

Almost to my bed

I still got my boots on

Hurtin' in my head

What the hell was I thinkin'?

Another deja vu

But you can bet this evenin'

I'll do what I always do

I put the whiskey down

Count me in on the groove

Turn it up, turn it loud, boys

Pickin' them country blues

Keep 'em out on the dance floor

Keep 'em drinkin' till there ain't no more

Till they turn on the lights

And call it a night

Let's put the whiskey down

Every honky tonk hero

I've ever known

Got a taste for the hard stuff

Old Gary Stewart's songs

Singing 'Ten Years Together'

Drinkin' doubles tonight

Till every glass is empty and every bottle is dry

I put the whiskey down

Count me in on the groove

Turn it up, turn it loud, boys

Pickin' them country blues

Keep 'em out on the dance floor

Keep 'em drinkin' till there ain't no more

Till they turn on the lights

And call it a night

Let's put the whiskey down

Let's put the whiskey down

Count me in on the groove

Turn it up, turn it loud, boys

Pickin' them country blues

Keep 'em out on the dance floor

Keep 'em drinkin' till there ain't no more

Till they turn on the lights

And call it a night

Let's put the whiskey down

Till they turn on the lights

And call it a night

Let's put the whiskey down
