Bordertown Whiskey Songtext
von Chancey Williams

You′re like a tall cool drink in the desert
Every time I lay eyes on you
You're that cantina sign I can′t seem to pass
Bby whenever I roll thru
Don't know if it's your touch or this bourbon
That always gets me so high
Soakin up every second pretendin we′ll never let go of the night

But I can just see the faint silhouette of a Blue Palo Verde
And I can hear that ol wind singin thru the mesquite like a song
And you know that it′s callin my name so baby you better kiss me
Cuz by dawn I'll be gone as this bottle of Bordertown whiskey


Yeah, I know before long I′ll be breathin the
Dust of that vagabond road
But wherever it takes me just know in my dreams it's you I hold
No, this ain′t goodbye girl cuz
Soon you know I'll will be back this way
Those sweet tempting eyes lookin at me, make me wish I could stay

But I can just see the faint silhouette of a Blue Palo Verde
And I can hear that ol wind singin thru the mesquite like a song
And you know that it′s callin my name so baby you better kiss me
Cuz by dawn I'll be gone as this bottle of Bordertown whiskey

Yeah, I can just see the faint silhouette of a Blue Palo Verde
And I can hear that ol wind singin thru the mesquite like a song
And you know that it's callin my name so baby just go on and kiss me
Cuz tomorrow I′ll just be a ghost and you′re gonna miss me
Yeah, by dawn I'll be gone as this bottle of Bordertown whiskey
Gone as Bordertown whiskey
