Whiskey Deep
written by: Levi J. Mericle
She left me for another man
This one she thought she’d keep
Two beers down to drown her out
One shot of whiskey deep
She smashed the lights of my pickup truck
I thought it was kinda sweet
Three beers down to drown the pain
And two shots of whiskey deep
She told me she’d always love me
And I thought she’d never cheat
Four beers down to drown the lies
And three shots of whiskey deep
Chorus:
There are lovers out there who choose to love
Because loving is in their jeans
And there are lovers out there who choose to love again
Although they will never be pleased
Then there are lovers out there like myself
Whose love is never incomplete
I love with a lover’s kiss till death
And a breath of whiskey deep
She tattooed my name on her left arm
I thought that was kind of neat
Five beers down to drown her out
Four shots of whiskey deep
Now I see her in my dreams
It’s a sickness I can’t beat
Six beers down to drown the pain
Five shots of whiskey deep
I thought I’d never be saying this
But I’m lost on Lover’s Street
Seven beers down to find my way
And six shots of whiskey deep
Chorus:
There are lovers out there who choose to love
Because loving is in their jeans
And there are lovers out there who choose to love again
Although they will never be pleased
Then there are lovers out there like myself
Whose love is never incomplete
I love with a lover’s kiss till death
And a breath of whiskey deep
To all the lovers out there who love
Love will always come too cheap
But you’ll find your price maybe once or twice
With six shots of whiskey deep
And to tell you I am sorry
Is a lie I’d like to keep
I drown it with my sorrow and
With shots of whiskey deep
Chorus:
There are lovers out there who choose to love
Because loving is in their jeans
And there are lovers out there who choose to love again
Although they will never be pleased
Then there are lovers out there like myself
Whose love is never incomplete
I love with a lover’s kiss till death
And a breath of whiskey deep
