| [00:12.35] |
She put him out like the burnin′ end of a midnight cigarette |
| [00:22.08] |
She broke his heart he spent his whole life tryin′ to forget |
| [00:32.68]We watched him drink his pain away a little at a time[00:38.90] |
But he never could get drunk enough to get her off his mind |
| [02:27.44][00:44.46] |
Until the night |
| [00:47.99] |
He put that bottle to his head and pulled the trigger |
| [00:54.99] |
And finally drank away her memory |
| [01:01.66] |
Life is short but this time it was bigger |
| [01:08.69] |
Than the strength he had to get up off his knees |
| [01:14.37] |
We found him with his face down in the pillow |
| [01:20.47] |
With a note that said I′ll love her till I die |
| [01:27.17] |
And when we buried him beneath the willow |
| [01:33.59] |
The angels sang a whiskey lullaby |
| [03:21.03][01:38.34] |
lala lala |
| [01:54.84] |
(Sing lullaby) |
| [01:55.53] |
The rumors flew but nobody knew how much she blamed herself |
| [02:04.72] |
For years and years she tried to hide the whiskey on her breath |
| [02:15.23] |
She finally drank her pain away a little at a time |
| [02:21.79] |
But she never could get drunk enough to get him off her mind |
| [02:31.58] |
She put that bottle to her head and pulled the trigger |
| [02:37.81] |
And finally drank away his memory |
| [02:44.19] |
Life is short but this time it was bigger |
| [02:50.36] |
Than the strength she had to get up off her knees |
| [02:57.00] |
We found her with her face down in the pillow |
| [03:03.72] |
Clinging to his picture for dear life |
| [03:09.89] |
We laid her next to him beneath the willow |
| [03:16.41] |
While the angels sang a whiskey lullaby |
| [04:17.51] |
