Don’t Take The Whiskey From Me

You can take my cold beer, you can take my pack of smoke

I don't need no lovin', I just want a Jack and Coke

You can take my keys, but don't take my whiskey from me

I don't care for business deals or priceless shiny things

Just give me a dirty broad and a bottle of Jim Beam

I don't mind playin' a fool, I guess I'm too far gone

But if you please, don't bother me, just leave me alone

You can take it all, take anything

But don't take the whiskey from me

I ain't tryin' to fall in love, that woman broke my heart

Left with both my babies, I just want a Maker's Mark

Yeah, I might get mean if you take my whiskey from me

I ain't much a gamblin' man, my poker face is weak

I'll see you, young Kentucky, and raise you a glass of Tennessee

You can make it easy, or you can make it hard

But you best make it a double and sit it right there on the bar

You can take it all, take anything

But don't take my whiskey from me

Down, down, down, down

Down, down, down, down

Down, down, down, down

Down, down, down, down

Down, down, down, down

Down, down, down, down

And I don't wanna talk no more, I don't wanna hear you speak

Hard times and bad luck, done got the best of me

Can't you see I'm weak? But don't take my whiskey from me

You can kick me out the bar, but I'll stop by the store

And buy another 90 proof, dammit, I need some more

Forget about that Seagram's Gin and Bailey's Irish Cream

And I don't care how grey that goose is

'Cause it ain't brown enough for me

Forget about it all, take everything

But don't take the whiskey from me

You can take it all, take everything

But don't take the whiskey from me

You can take it all, take everything

But please don't take the whiskey from me
