As Long as There Is Whiskey in the World Lyrics
I been down on my luck
Been down too long this time
I’ve drank down to the bottom
Until I found myself there too
And the taste of defeat
Has never been so sweet
So I pour another glass
And fail again and again
I’ve been down
And I’ve been higher than six towers
I’ve asked the higher powers
If they could just spare a drink
Did they answer my cries?
I was a bit preoccupied
I’ve toasted them, boasted to them
That they had met their match
But as long as there is whiskey in the world
We can drink away the heartache
And drink away the girls
But we fall in love, but we never touch
As long as there is whiskey in the world
I have loved
And I’ve lost all that they gave me
They all try and save me
But I’m seeing this thing through
And these feelings of remorse
They leave me no recourse
So I poured another glass
Fail again and again
But as long as there is whiskey in the world
We can drink away the heartache
And drink away the girls
But we fall in love, but we never touch
As long as there is whiskey in the world
I don’t want to be saved
Ah, ah, ah, ah
As long as there is whiskey in the world
As long as there is whiskey in the world
As there is whiskey
As there is whiskey
As there is whiskey in the world
Been down too long this time
I’ve drank down to the bottom
Until I found myself there too
And the taste of defeat
Has never been so sweet
So I pour another glass
And fail again and again
And I’ve been higher than six towers
I’ve asked the higher powers
If they could just spare a drink
Did they answer my cries?
I was a bit preoccupied
I’ve toasted them, boasted to them
That they had met their match
We can drink away the heartache
And drink away the girls
But we fall in love, but we never touch
As long as there is whiskey in the world
And I’ve lost all that they gave me
They all try and save me
But I’m seeing this thing through
And these feelings of remorse
They leave me no recourse
So I poured another glass
Fail again and again
We can drink away the heartache
And drink away the girls
But we fall in love, but we never touch
As long as there is whiskey in the world
As long as there is whiskey in the world
As there is whiskey
As there is whiskey
As there is whiskey in the world

Aside from the annoying boxes, these lyrics are wrong. Drink away the harvest? Really? Listen to the song.
I been down on my luck Been down, too long this time, I’ve drank onto the bottom Till I found myself there too And the taste of defeat, has never been so sweet So I pour another glass and fail again. And again.

But as long as there is whiskey in the world We can drink away the hearth ache And drink away the girls But we fall in love, but we never touch As long as there is whiskey in the world.

Hey, those were pretty close, and the boxes are there cause I had to upload the lyrics for almost the whole album from my iTouch using the wifi in the parking lot at work at like one in the morning. As for the 'harvest' and 'amber' lines, while they're wrong, they do sound similar, and they tied into the whiskey theme, which is why I assumed them. So thanks for the right lyrics, but please don't be a butthead, cause we're all Murder-By-Deathians here. With that, I'll say those boxes ARE about as annoying as sin.
This song came out two years too late... Would've been perfect to listen to back in college partying with all my friends.
Still is perfect to listen to, don't get me wrong though.
he mentions "Higher Power" and how you can drink away problems. so it might be a song about AA or rehab or some shit
