I said up in New York City
|
I try to find the man I never got to be
|
Oh I push down on the pavement
|
Find the whole thing so much harder than it seems
|
|
The only deal I ever signed
|
The old devil drew a dotted line
|
The stage was set, the words were mine
|
I'm not complaining
|
|
Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey
|
Water, water, water
|
Sleep
|
Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey
|
Wake up, shake it off
|
And repeat
|
|
It's just a phase
|
It's not forever
|
It's just a phase
|
And I still might have a ways to go
|
|
Every night around this time
|
My friends and I we treat it like a race
|
When I really start to break it down
|
When you trust a girl who knew about this place
|
|
Walking on with nothing left
|
Speak softly underneath my breath
|
Hey world you ain't seen nothing yet
|
Hey now, it's waiting.
|
|
Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey
|
Water, water, water
|
Sleep
|
Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey
|
Wake up, shake it off
|
And repeat
|
|
It's just a phase
|
It's not forever
|
It's just a phase
|
But I still might have a ways...yeah
|
|
Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey
|
Water, water, water
|
Sleep
|
Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey
|
Wake up, shake it off
|
And repeat it, repeat it, repeat after me
|

Whisky, Whisky, Whisky
