Lyrics David Allan Coe – Tennessee Whiskey
Text:
I used to spend my nights in a bar room
Liquor was the only love I’ve known
But you rescued me from reaching for the bottom
And brought me back from being too far gone
You’re as smooth as Tennessee whiskey
You’re as sweet as strawberry wine
You’re as warm as a glass of brandy
And I stay stoned on your love all the time
I looked for love in all the same old places
Found the bottom of the bottle’s always dry
But when you poured out your heart I didn’t waste it
Cause there’s nothing like your love to get me high
You’re as smooth as Tennessee whiskey
You’re as sweet as strawberry wine
You’re as warm as a glass of brandy
And I stay stoned on your love all the time
