Can\'t Let Go Songtext
von William Clark Green

Tonight I′m goin' out on the town
Gotta lose myself ′fore I break down
I'm just tired of the wishin' well stealin′ my change

One foot in front and one behind
If I trip and fall I′m gonna lose my mind
Ain't go no money, no gas, and no shame


I need a shot of whiskey to sooth my soul
Exchange my luck for a pot of gold
Here′s to the wishin' well that never gives
I need a shot of whiskey to ease my mind
If it′s bad luck it ain't no friend of mine
So repay your debt so I can live
Just set me free, I need a shot of whiskey

The bar just opened the night′s still young
Maybe pawn my guitar, pawn my gun
Put away that stuff, I can't get high

I checked my wallet, I checked the couch
I need to find some money 'fore the bars close down
I guess that wishin′ well finally went dry


I need a shot of whiskey to sooth my soul
Exchange my luck for a pot of gold
Here′s to the wishin' well that never gives
I need a shot of whiskey to ease my mind
If it′s bad luck it ain't no friend of mine
So repay your debt so I can live
Just set me free, I need a shot of whiskey
