Lyrics

I ain't gonna gamble away a hard week's pay, never thought about livin' that life
Don't start a fight with a man, cause I don't give a damn, to sit in jail and ruin my night
Some things are fun, but better undone, rather leave them up on the shelf
But it's the Tennessee mask, burpin' in a glass, got me feelin' like someone else
Like firin' gas in a head-on crash, I'm burnin' that midnight oil
You can feel the heat on the edge of your seat, when my blood starts to boil
When I keep it straight, it's way too late, one thing I've learned, you can't fight fate
There's a line I don't cross to catch a dream, but when I won't, whiskey wheel
When I won't, whiskey will
Come on
Now don't ask me why I've become that guy, can't tell ya, but I know this
There's a devil inside, and he's ready to ride, when the bottle touches my lips
I'm a loaded gun, get ready to run, when that hunter-proof burns the tip of my tongue
Cause to me, you know, blow away with the southern wind
Like firin' gas in a head-on crash, I'm burnin' that midnight oil
You can feel the heat on the edge of your seat, when my blood starts to boil
When I keep it straight, it's way too late, one thing I've learned, you can't fight fate
There's a line I don't cross to catch a dream, but when I won't, whiskey will
Now I'm a God-fearin' good ol' boy, raised on the Bible, yes ma'am and no sir
Don't ever tell a liar, but the whiskey make you frisky, thinkin' all my exes miss me
Shoulda seen it comin' when I started gettin' tipsy
But uh, too late now, bout to show em' how I turn it up
Mad slit, aw shit, your boy about to burn it up
Run around off that brown, hotel knows the deal, I won't, but the whiskey will
Like firin' gas in a head-on crash, I'm burnin' that midnight oil
You can feel the heat on the edge of your seat, when my blood starts to boil
When I keep it straight, it's way too late, one thing I've learned, you can't fight fate
There's a line I don't cross to catch a dream, but when I won't, whiskey will
When I won't, whiskey wheel
It's the Tennessee mash, bourbon in a glass, got me feelin' like someone else
Got me talkin' trash and drivin' too fast, in a line straight to hell
Like firin' gas in a head-on crash, I'm burnin' that midnight oil
You can feel the heat on the edge of your seat, when my blood starts to boil
When I keep it straight, it's way too late, one thing I've learned, you can't fight fate
There's a line I don't cross to catch a dream, but when I won't, whiskey will
When I won't, whiskey will
Oh, whiskey will
