The Liar Songtext
von John Fullbright

Better days are coming
But the nights are all the same
You wake up in the morning
You take a sip of shame

But I ain′t sipped nothing
Since I woke up today
And all I can think to do right now
Is to get down on my knees and pray

God grant me whiskey
And I promise I'll be good
They say you help the needy
I think it′s understood

That I'm in need of stronger hands
To pour me out the door
God grant me whiskey
And I won't lie no more


If I could learn how to swallow pride
Like I learned how to swallow wine
I′d be doing so much better
I could walk a straight line

But I don′t learn nothing
Until it falls down on me
Half of life is looking back
On what you're trying to be

God grant me whiskey
And I promise I′ll be good
They say you help the needy
I think it's understood
That I′m in need of stronger hands
To pour me out the door
God grant me whiskey
And I won't lie no more
God grant me whiskey
An I won′t lie
