As Long as There Is Whiskey in the World

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
