[Intro]
Whiskey's shadow, falling long and cold,
Lost my love, my kids, and dreams of old.
[Verse 1]
That devil's liquor whispered sweet and low,
Led me down a path I didn't know.
First sip buzzed, next sip pain,
Now I'm just a shell, lost in rain.
[Pre-Chorus]
Can’t forget what I’ve thrown away,
Echoes haunt me every day.
Wish I could erase that line,
Back to a time when you were mine.
[Chorus]
Oh, that devil’s liquor, I hate you with my soul,
Took my world, left me whole.
But I run, I chase that high,
Even knowing I might die.
[Bridge]
All the friends and loves I’ve lost,
Turned into shadows, paid the cost.
If I had one last plea,
Lord, set my family free.
[Outro]
Ain't nothing left but my horse and me,
Bound to this lonely destiny.
Wish I could turn back the time,
And clear my heart of that devil’s wine.
