She put him out,
|
Like the burning end of a midnight cigarette,
|
She broke his heart,
|
He spent his whole life trying to forget,
|
We watched him drink his pain away a little at a time,
|
But he never could get drunk enough to get her off his mind,
|
Untill the night,
|
|
Chorus:
|
He put that bottle to his head and pulled the trigger,
|
And finally drank away her memory,
|
Life is short but this time it was bigger,
|
Than the strengh he had to get up off his knees,
|
We found him with his face down in the pillow,
|
With a note that said "I'll love her 'till I die."
|
And when we burried him beneath the willow,
|
The angles sang the Whisky Lullaby,
|
Lalalalalalala
|
Lalalalalalalaaaaaa
|
Lalalalalalala
|
Lalalalalalalaaaaaa
|
|
|
The rumors flew,
|
But nobody knew how much she blamed herself,
|
For years and years,
|
She tried to hide the whisky on her breath,
|
She finally drank her pain away a little at a time,
|
But she never could get drunk enough to get him off her mind,
|
Untill the night
|
|
Chorus:
|
She put that bottle to her head and pulled the trigger,
|
And finally drank away his memory,
|
Life is short but this time it was bigger,
|
Than the strengh she had to get up off her knees,
|
We found her with her face down in the pillow,
|
Clinging to his picture for dear life,
|
We laid her next to him beneath the willow,
|
While the angles sang the Whisky Lullaby,
|
Lalalalalalala
|
Lalalalalalalaaaaaa
|
Lalalalalalala
|
Lalalalalalalaaaaaa
|
|
Lalalalalalala
|
Lalalalalalalaaaaaa
|
Lalalalalalala
|
Lalalalalalalaaaaaa
