He drives like hell to get over the past
Yeah he knows, those broken hearts don't last
But there's something in the air tonight
Yeah that whiskey has a little more bite
That handle helps him say what his hearts been holding back
Cause there's a fire growing with every Fireball shot
And there's a tear held back with every thought about him and her
No He can't find a cure and
It's grab another bottle, pour another round
Till those old memories quit coming around
He can't help it happens, it's just habit
Cause this ain't the mixture for his remedy
It's half whiskey, half lonely
Well he knows this ain't how to cope with the pain
But that jack on the rocks helps ease the strain
That hurt he feels inside there ain't nothing that'll help his fight
So that bourbon that keeps saying what his hearts been holding back
Cause there's a fire growing with every Fireball shot
And there's a tear held back with every thought about him and her
No He can't find a cure and
It's grab another bottle, pour another round
Till those old memories quit coming around
He can't help it happens, it's just habit
Cause this ain't the mixture for his remedy
It's half whiskey, half lonely
He can't help the way he feels
There's too much pain to deal with it by himself
The whiskey always tells that poor boy the broken truth
That she's gone with someone new and she ain't turning back
So there's no use
Cause there's a fire growing with every Fireball shot
And there's a tear held back with every thought about him and her
No He can't find a cure and
It's grab another bottle, pour another round
Till those old memories quit coming around
He can't help it happens, it's just habit
Cause this ain't the mixture for his remedy
It's half whiskey, half lonely
