Wasted Whiskey Songtext
von Rodney Atkins

I had every intention
Of gettin′ hammered here tonight
I gave my truck keys to the bar keep
Said,? Dave, don? t you dare let me drive?

But in the middle of this bottle
I drank my train of thought off track
So I? ve gotta stop drinkin' or start rethinkin′
My reasonin' for throwin' ′em back

′Cause it? s just wasted whiskey
Tryin' to drink you off from my mind
There ain? t enough Bourbon behind this bar
And I ain? t got that kinda time

So I? m gonna stand while I can and raise my glass
Toast every time you kiss me
′Cause drinkin' to forget about you
Is wasted whiskey


So here? s to new beginnings
And to the memories
And cheers to your momma and daddy
′Cause they were right about you and me

And here? s to Millsap on the jukebox
And to your new friends you? ve found
And here? s to our joint account, Mastercard
'Cause I? m buyin′ the whole house around

'Cause it? s just wasted whiskey
Tryin' to drink you off from my mind
There ain? t enough Bourbon behind this bar
And I ain? t got that kinda time

So I? m gonna stand while I can and raise my glass
Toast every time you kiss me
′Cause drinkin′ to forget about you
Is wasted whiskey

It? s just wasted whiskey
Tryin' to drink you off from my mind
There ain? t enough Bourbon behind this bar
And I ain? t got that kinda time


I? m gonna stand while I can and raise my glass
Toast every single time you ever kiss me
′Cause drinkin' to forget about you
Is wasted whiskey

Oh, drinkin′ to forget about you
That? s just wasted whiskey
