Lyrics

Poured me a shot, I took it neat and quick That liquid fire, got a kick that sticks Each drop's a whisper from a friend long gone Holdin' the bottle but the cap's never on [Verse] His eyes are hollow, but they see right through A golden elixir, tellin' lies as truth Gimme, gimme, gimme that bottle so cruel [Verse] I found the devil at the bottom of the well Whiskey burnin', tales I could tell He comes a-knockin' when I'm feelin' alone Spins my head, then takes my soul [Chorus] It's that devil, devil in the drink With every swig, life's pages start to blur Promises broken, old voices begin to stir Jukebox is cryin’ with a fiddle's mournful sound In the neon light, my demons come unwound [Verse] One more dance with the ghost in the rye Fool's courage flowing, under the whiskey sky [Steel guitar solo]
