Whiskey Walls

[Verse]
Whiskey drippin’ slow in the glass, my only friend tonight
Neon buzzin’ on my shadow, red and blue fightin’ the light
Heart’s a busted jukebox, playin’ pain on repeat
Boots heavy on this barstool, roots too deep to leave my seat
[Chorus]
She said, "What’s a cowboy doin’ sittin’ here all alone?"
I said, "Darlin’, this saloon’s the only place I call home"
Told her my heart’s locked tighter than a bank vault door
She said, "Maybe I’ll just wait, see if you got more"
[Verse 2]
She had a voice like velvet, cut through the smoke and lies
Eyes sharp as spurs, but soft as Tennessee skies
She asked, "What’s got you drinkin’ like you’re buryin’ ghosts?"
I said, "Ain’t no use diggin’, what’s dead don’t need a toast"
[Prechorus]
She laughed, "You’re harder to crack than old barbed wire"
I said, "This cowboy’s heart don’t handle fire"
[Chorus]
She said, "What’s a cowboy doin’ sittin’ here all alone?"
I said, "Darlin’, this saloon’s the only place I call home"
Told her my heart’s locked tighter than a bank vault door
She said, "Maybe I’ll just wait, see if you got more"
[Bridge]
Glass to my lips, drownin’ out the pain
She leans in closer, says, "Boy, what’s her name?"
I said, "Ain’t no name worth carvin’ in this wood
She left me in the dust, right where I stood"
