  • All the folks down in Lynchburg, Tennessee
    Been working hard for good ol' boys like me
    I don't wanna be the one to tell 'em
    That stuff that they've been selling
    Ain't working like it should
    But I damn sure wish it would

    Whiskey's supposed to drown the memory
    I've gone from one to one too many
    And the thing that really gets me
    Is how your memory drowns the whiskey

    Maybe it's the bar or the stool I'm on
    Maybe it's the band and the sad old song
    That keeps me buying rounds
    That keeps me turning down
    Any girl that wants to dance
    And you ain't giving them a chance

    Whiskey's supposed to drown the memory
    I've gone from one to one too many
    And the thing that really gets me
    Is how your memory drowns the whiskey

    Girl, I'm living proof that 80 proof
    Ain't got a shot at touching you

    Whiskey's supposed to drown the memory
    I've gone from one to one too many
    And the thing that really gets me
    Is whiskey's supposed to drown the memory
    I've gone from one to one too many
    And the thing that really gets me
    Is how your memory drowns the whiskey
    Yeah the thing that really gets me
    Is how your memory drowns the whiskey
