lyrics

this whole town, knows that i've been drinking
this whole town's, got something smart to say
dont gotta tell me, i know what you're thinking
when you can smell me coming from a mile away

my whiskey breath
my whiskey breath
it'll sure lead me to jail, if it don't first lead me to death
watch my mouth and try to keep it closed, to hide my whiskey breath

i got pulled over, driving home last sunday
told that law man "it isn't what it seems"
he said you were driving backwards down a one way
and you smell like you've been swimming in a bottle of jim beam

my whiskey breath
my whiskey breath
now i'm sitting in this jail house til i reach my death
watch my mouth and gotta keep it closed, to hide my whiskey breath
