Lyrics
A Whiskey Shot Closer
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Singing songs about the ocean doesn't make you a sailor
Talkin about doing doesn't get nothing done
Singing songs about fighting doesn't make you a soldier
Talking about leaving won't make you gone
All I know is I'm just a gambler
Spend my life waiting for the 7 to fall
Cause I'm just a Budweiser further from remembering your name
And a whiskey shot closer to forgetting it all
Forgetting it all
I know that reading the bible won't get you to Heaven
And thinking about running won't make your legs weak
You got a picture of Paris, that don't mean you been there
Just cause you're able, doesn't mean you can speak
All I know is I'm just a dreamer
I got my head in the clouds and my name on the wall
I'm just a Budweiser further from remembering your name
And a whiskey shot closer to forgetting it all
To forgetting it all
Just because you're a woman, don't make you a lady
Just talking meaner won't make you a man
Being flat broke don't make you unwealthy
Doubting you're hear don't make you understand
All I know is I'm just a sinner
Just a little white sparkle in a big crystal ball
I'm just a Budweiser further from remembering your name
And a whiskey shot closer to forgetting it all
I'm just a Budweiser further from remembering your name
And a whiskey shot closer to forgetting it all
Forgetting it all
Thanks for the drink
Tell me what was your name…
