Guns go off and cars go crash Another night of mama picking up glass An ounce of courage and a gallon of sin We all lose when the whiskey wins ♪ Slamming doors and slurring words I cover my face to hide the hurt Mama said, "Lock your door" again 'Cause we all lose when the whiskey wins And heaven hears every cry And catches every tear from your eye And you don't have to fight alone Do your best to forgive and know in the end We all lose when the whiskey wins ♪ Some blue-lights flash the front door screen Cops and granddaddy rescued me No more screams and no more fear 'Cause we all lose when the whiskey wins But heaven hears every cry And catches every tear from your eye And you don't have to fight alone Do your best to forgive and know in the end We all lose when the whiskey wins See, we all lose when the whiskey wins
