Waltz About Whiskey

Once the gettin' was good
But now, the gettin's got gone
So, I'm going downtown, just to tie one on
I'm oak aged and sour
I'm going down by the hour
And I'm as blue as the night is long

So, won't someone dance with me, to a waltz about whiskey
And turn the sad songs to lullabies
Well, I don't need much of nothing, except for all your loving
And a waltz about whiskey on ice

Well, one quarter should do, number A32
A little truth from the jukebox, should make it alright
And as the booze sets in, I'm getting high again
To a waltz about whiskey on ice

So, won't someone dance with me, to a waltz about whiskey
And turn the sad songs to lullabies
I don't need much of nothing, except for all your loving
And a waltz about whiskey on ice

Well, I remember the night she sat down beside me
She cried love was a ring that won't end
Well, I was handed a lie
And now, the only thing I know of a ring, is the circle my glass leaves behind

So, won't someone dance with me, to a waltz about whiskey
And turn the sad songs to lullabies
I don't need much of nothing, except for all your loving
And a waltz about whiskey on ice
