Whiskey River Songtext
von Sweet F.A.

I′m goin' down, down, down, down the Whiskey River
Where the water runs brown and the bells are ringin′ in my head
They're ringin' in my head
Down, down, down, down the Whiskey River
Whiskey River, Lord, it′s gonna kill me dead
It′s gonna kill me dead

I see across the floor, oh, there's sexy little Sherry
Ooo, ooo, ooo, ooo, ooo
She gotta rich old man she ain′t gonna marry, yeah
Yeah, well, she be sittin' around with the boys in the band tonight
Tonight
I see her makin′ the rounds with her poison in hand all night
Yeah, yeah


She take me down, down, down, down the Whiskey River
Where the water runs brown and the bells are ringin' in my head
They′re ringin' in my head
She take me down, down, down, down the Whiskey River
Whiskey River, Lord, it's gonna kill me dead
It′s gonna kill me dead

Well, it′s a 3: 45, I got my hands all over Sherry
Yeah, yeah, she's lookin′ mighty fine, feelin' kinda scary
Yeah, and with a bottle in her hand, she′s holdin' it up to the light
And she says, hey little boy, I′m gonna make you a man, I'm
Gonna make you a man tonight

She take me down
She take me down the river
Down the Whiskey River
She's gonna bleed me dry
Yeah

Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
She take me down the river
Whiskey River
Whiskey River
Whiskey River
Yeah, Whiskey River, Lord, it′s gonna kill me dead
